Holly Jolly Christmas 2009


This is one of many trips to see Santa this year. This was at the Miller Park/Upper Arlington Library Christmas party. We also went to breakfast with Santa at the YMCA which was amazing. Santa at that party gave all the kids wrapped presents. I forgot my camera though so this is the only picture I got.
We made LOTS of Christmas crafts this year. This was a candy chain that the kids made. Each day they got to eat a piece while counting down until Christmas eve.The Christmas loot! Our Christmas tree was decorated in all homemade decorations that the kids made this year. Be it small I think it was my favorite tree ever!
On Christmas eve our family tradition is to open one present. We always get new Pajamas and a new book.
Then we went ahead and let the kids open the grandparents package. Miley is now a tea making fool with her new tea set. Her favorite present by far! Thanks Grandma and Papa for all the GREAT gifts!
Christmas morning. Notice it is still dark out side. Dash and Miley walked into our room at 6:30 am and whispered loudly "There are a LOT of presents out there"!

Miley trying to ride her Barbies horse.
Miley with 4 or 5 huge gum balls in her mouth at once!My favorite Christmas present! After all the gifts were open Dash ran up to me with the most sincere little hug and whispered fervently, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"
