Christmas Day 2009

A few snapshots of the day.

In Elissa's letter to Santa she said that she wanted a princess jacket, so here it is. :-)

So excited by the little fun stuff in her stocking from Santa.

Darin and I some how decided to get the very same things for each other. That's just how connected we are. hee, hee :-)

My little "rockin" girl is so excited to get a Moxie Girl.

Daddy loves his new coat!

Nana gets a fancy new floor light to help her with her puzzles.

Zach learned fast how to rip the presents open.

Zach got the Rocky Rollie he has been asking for nonstop - from Nana. He is excited!

We are playing Elissa's new game - Flippin' Frogs - it is pretty fun.

The kids are having a ball with the helicopters that Daddy got them.

The aftermath.....

Later in the afternoon Grandma & Papa came over for dinner.

The kids are ready for another round of presents.

And our little love bug showing his appreciation. :-)

Daddy and Lissy couldn't keep their eyes open any longer.

It was a long full day of family fun.

I'm sad to say that celebrating Jesus' birth wasn't really a part of the day. I'm going to figure out a way to change that next year. Maybe I just need to work on making Him even more a part of our every day. Thank you Jesus for loving us right where we are.
