Did you all survive?

Such fun huh? LOL

Well the kids truly enjoyed their holiday. This year we went to church on Thursday night. That was totally fun. Chris and I feel very blessed to have made some wonderful friends there already so it was a real treat to visit with them while celebrating such a great service.

               

 

               

Christmas eve was a full day. They opened lots of presents and got very overloaded. And with their colds, just were really worn out.

                               

Xmas morning, Chayce and Joshua woke me up....mommy was sooo tired....and were yelling “Mommy, mommy, Santa brought us tons of toys...come on..let’s go open them”. I just love their enthusiasm for this. 

So while Chris and I sipped our coffees, trying to wake up, the kids ripped through their stockings and looved seeing Santa’s cookie crumbs on the plate near the tree.

                               

A full fun day of opening gifts and seeing all the goodies they got. We were pretty surprised to see Chayce get mostly everything on her list. LOL She was tickled and is happily sharing her stuff with her baby brothers. Josh and Matthew love their gifts and they are all spread out over this entire house. The way it should be! LOL

Okay so my favorite toy out of all and I'm still trying to remember everything, was our dd's Glow-E Bear! With the wand! OMG This toy is FUN! LOL Especially in the dark! That bear does fun light shows! Really cool!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! :) Smoochies!

So glad you all had a lovely Christmas. Isn't the best seeing it thru their eyes. Makes it SO worth all the long nights and secret operations! LOL

Ahh Miss Jenn.... what did Santa bring you? I hope he rewarded your hard work as a Mommy, a design team member and friend and wife!

I hope it was a hot pink sports car.. or .. at least a camera accessory! LOL. Love Santa.. he had a tim tam, rudolph ate a carrot and he left magic dust from his sliegh around the place.

Merry Christmas.. and a very Happy New Year!

Oh my Goodness, Chayce looks all grown up in this picture. So, so sweet. I love her. Don't you just love being a mommy? Especially during the holidays. The kids are SO much fun.

Thanks for posting this cool bear, I just bought one for Elle and Leo. I know, I know, we just had Christmas but I have 2 suitcases full of goodies I am taking home to spread out the giving throughout the year. It's the best way when we live on such a tiny island with no Target LOL!!!!!

Happy holidays to you and your beautiful family Jenn. I can't wait to see what kind of scrap goodies you come out with in 2007.

Hugs and smoochies to you all.

Those pictures look like a Hallmark commercial...what kind of camera do you use? I especially like the one of grandfather (guessing?) and the boys, that is just precious! Thanks for sharing...

Beautiful pictures!! The one of the boys looks so good-like it's in should be in a magazine!!

Oh boy- that bear is my kids favorite! They stay up an extra hour each night playing with it in bed- I think it's going to be banned from bedtime soon!
