Christmas Day 2008

One silly family!

Ellie and her dollhouse. She saw one house with a disco ball in it so she wanted one really bad. I made one and it came out pretty nice I must say! Dad and Cam and the train table

Beanie Babies from Aunt Noni. Hmmmm, maybe

we should start a collection or something....ahahahaha!

Ellie and daddy....though daddy is getting the

work out here!

Hmmmm, is this jar 1/4 full or 3/4 empty?

Cam loves to bounce, too!

What a day! Thank goodness the kids still sleep in! I think we got up at 8:30am, but since we were up until about 2am, that was just fine! There is so much fun in watching kids open gifts at Christmas! It still brings back the fun memories for me. Ellie's big gift this year was a pogo stick. I didn't know they made them anymore as I never see them, but sure enough, they are big around Christmas time. It was the one thing she asked for on a regular basis. My mom got her the Barbie dollhouse, which she loves. She and Cameron play so much with that! We got him a special Ken doll to play with, too! She also got a pogo stick which she loves! She isn't quite heavy enough yet to really get it going so we get quite the workout helping. Cam's big gift was the train table. He LOVES trains. He is a little obsessed with them I think it is safe to say. We had a hard time getting him away from it to open any more presents. He played with it for 45 min. before we could coax him to open anything else.

Mom and Danny came over later to open their gifts with us and we had some brunch. But dinner was the best by far as we feasted on all thing wild.....pheasant, duck, and some carribou. YUM!

Wish we all lived closer so we could spend time with all of you for the holidays! It is so much more fun with family! But you all were in our thoughts and prayers and hope your Christmas was greatly blessed, especially with love =)
