Christmas Day!

Well Christmas day was fun and relaxing....I think!

We took over 100 pictures today, and combining yesterday and today, well over 150, so I'm not going to put a whole lot on here.




This is what our tree looked like for Christmas Morning.




Us getting ready to call Grandma and Grandpa Arnold...nice and early :D


Emalee's Christmas Loot

Grandma and Grandpa Arnold gave Merryetta and Emalee the play kitchen, and a basket of groceries. Her sisters gave her dolls, and the "tea" set dishes. She also got a fingerpuppet story book of goldilocks, and some tub time hippo puppet washers. She got a play cell phone and some interlocking plastic beads. She's also sporting her new pjs from Grandma and Grandpa Reece.



Merryetta's Stash!

Merryetta got the Dora the Explorer stuff from our neighbors Bob and Lucy. Her sisters gave her the little kitchen appliance toys. She also got a little puppy that she calls JoJo that Ema gave her. She got lots of cookie cutters, a Little Red Riding Hood finger puppet story book, a Charlie and Lola story book. She got the School House Rock collection on DVD...(mommy was happy about that!) Metta is also sporting her favorite pjs from Grandma and Grandpa Reece.


Kaleigh's Collection

Kaleigh's sisters gave her the kitchen appliance play set, the dream castle, and the little puppy dog that she calls Anubella. Grandma and Grandpa Arnold gave her her Little Pet shop. She got her favorite movie High School Musical 2. She also got a kids cooking set with a cinnamon roll mix to make. She loved it! She also got a book called The Paper Bag Princess. She is also happily wearing her cozy new pjs from Grandma and Grandpa Reece.


Marley's Haul

Marley's sisters gave her the Fairy Tale Play Set, the baby doll, and the puppy dog she calls Moe. Grandma and Grandpa Arnold got her some Wheelys. She too got a couple puppets. She was rather excited about the movie Ratatouille. But even more excited about the kids cookbook, mixing spoons and the brownie mix in the red oven mitt.


When we were taking pictures, we realized that we had forgotten some of the family gifts from others. Sorry...
Here's the family stuff that didn't get included in with all the kids.



The Harry Potter Hardcover 1-7 Book set, large brick like building blocks, and a couple family games from Grandma Reece.


Christmas was all about the kids this year. Mom and Dad got some stuff...but it was really all about the kids. Just so you believe me...I got a kitchen aid hand mixer, and a Reader's Digest Christmas Songbook. Mike got The Game of Life, and Risk.


We had to wait until later to open the rest of our presents. They were from the Bates Family.







We had a very Merry Christmas, and we hope you did too.
