Welcome Christmas!

What a Christmas morning! The girls woke up at the reasonable hour of 7:00am. Emmaline was able to peek through the upstairs banisters and see that Santa had come. Hooray!!!

Emmaline got a My Little Pony Castle complete with a herd of ponies, a board game, and some beads to make jewelry. Her stocking had some candy, a new hair brush, and a green toy car. The ONLY thing she asked for this year from Santa was a green toy car and boy was it hard for Santa to find!

Liliana got a Noah's Ark complete with the two "Expansion" animal packs. She LOVES Little People and is constantly carrying them around and lining them up places so we knew 20 new animals would be a big hit. Also the Tinkerbell movie and a Color Wonder set. Her stocking had candy, a new hair brush, and a red toy car!

Imogene received a Sing and Go Choo Choo, a ball, and some books. One is called Imogene's Antlers. (heehee). Her stocking had baby food and some small baby toys and a yellow toy car. That train has actually been the biggest hit so far - with Emmaline and Liliana fighting over it. Who knew??? I managed to pull off a surprise for AJ and got him an ipod nano. I actually spent the grocery money on it and have been living out of our pantry all month so he had no idea that I had spent anything on him! Go me!!! The girls went to the Dollar Store for him and surprised him with a new tape measure, cable ties, and a case for his ipod.

AJ got me a video, a new Hymnbook (mine is literally falling apart), a stick blender (mine died!), and new socks! I haven't had new socks since 2004 and ALL of mine have holes in them. ALL of them. He was helping me fold laundry a few weeks ago and apparently noted the woeful condition they were in! The girl's Dollar Tree surprises for me were a heart shaped night light, a loofah, and sponges.

Merry Christmas!!!
