Santa came to our house a day early!
Harry wanted a lot of things this year but most of all he wanted a DS...I accidentally got him the 3DS because I am so out of the gaming world! He loves it and we have set major rules for it. I heard that kids who play video games (obviously too much) are more likely to be addicted to pornography. I also know there is a direct correlation with ADD and being a teacher, you know the kids who over do it on the video games. On the other hand, I want him to be tech savvy and I do not think they are the devil...obviously..we bought him one! HA! He loved it along with a few other exciting toys and clothes! He is really into spies, pirates, soccer, Legos! He was showered with them all! I have even been playing with his Legos and Mario Cart 7 on the DS is so much fun!
Georgia Kelley asked Santa for a baby and Elmo book! Harry got her a baby with his own money and Santa brought her a fake cat and make up!
A make up artist in her future?
We spent Christmas Eve and day at my parent's house! We tried our best to recreate the traditions we had going to my grandmothers and for the most part..it worked. The kids all hearing the reindeer prancing on the roof and jingle bells. They also saw sleigh lights through the window!
THey came out and Santa had brought them more presents!
Then we switched gifts with everyone!
Georgia Kelley was obsessed with her "sick" baby that Bobo picked out for her!
Georgia Kelley loved her scarf from Emmy!
Elmo dress from Paul and Tessa! She also got a cute Elmo shirt that she is obsessed with from Ashley! I love it when people put thought and inquiry into gifts! I been studying about the 3 wise men and how meaningful the gifts they got for Jesus were! I use to think it was odd they would give Mary such nice gifts, when she would obviously want diapers or a nice blanket or even a gift card to a hotel! Now I realize how meaningful they are! I am sure everyone already knew that!
They were posing with the big gift from Emily to all of them!
It was really cute when all the girls wanted Emily to do their hair on Sunday morning! I was a bit bummed because she didn't have time to do mine too!
On our way home, we stopped to say hi to my grandparents! How cute are they!
Grandmother was not feeling well so they didn't give her big hugs!
We actually spent Christmas Eve Eve at the Wares and then did Christmas night at their house! This gingerbread house was driving me NUTS! Notice Georgia Kelley eating the roof!
My Mallory was sick...poor baby! I look really sad for her huh?
They kids were so happy unwrapping their gifts! So sweet!
My favorite thing is the "lefty righty" game. Sandy gets a whole bunch of gift cards and after we play the game, we switch! We left with 2 from Table Mesa, movies, and School Squared! The School Squared is already spent and we are saving the other three for a date night! Good times!
It was a wonderful Christmas! I love both of our families more and more each year! We have so much fun together! I am really "sick" that I am not with them all in El Dorado because I am "sick". I am sitting the couch with a big ole roll of toilet paper (half wadded on the floor)! I am drugged up but just miserable. I hope to make it up to Memaw really soon!
