Christmas 2011 - Christmas Morning


This was one of the first Christmas mornings we have not had to wake the kids up.   Lots of whispering around 6:30 which is very doable for me.   We are one of those families who take turns opening presents so it prolongs the process - irritating children and making the parents very happy.  We had breakfast and then church and then Christmas dinner  - Love Honey Baked Ham!   The kids were happy, we spent time remembering our Savior, his birth and his life and what can be better than that.   





Rudy our Elf stayed around for one more day.....We were all sad to see him go.   Who knew the little guy could be so much fun?

Cam celebrating her American Girl Doll, Molly.   Santa LOVES  all things American Girl.

Libby with new boots - Every girl in Texas needs at least one pair of boots.

Jake and new wood bats - let's hope they last at least through the high school season.


Izzie and her new Vera Bradley hipster.  
These were the highlight of Christmas gift giving.  Cam was super excited to buy gifts for everyone at Santa's Workshop at her school.   She took her own money and bought nail files for the kids.   They read the following:  Libby  - World's Greatest Grandma;   Jake  - World's Greatest Mom;   Izzie - World's Greatest Aunt

She is about the funniest thing around - love that girl!
