Christmas A Little Early

Saturday morning we had our family's Christmas. We will be traveling next Saturday and we did not want to cart all of our presents to P'cola and home again. So anyway. We had told the kids the night before, but K was a little confused. She actually got one of her presents (the one from C) and looked inside it. She also kept saying something about her birthday and not being able to wait. So I think she thought it was her birthday. We all got some cool things and here are just a few pictures to prove it.

K got a Cabbage Patch newborn. Remember when they were so popular? The name that this one came with was Trinity; however, we are going to let K rename it and I'm going to request a new birth certificate. So far she has come up with many names, but I think it's going to be Monica.
C got this huge coloring book and 120 crayons. He has been eyeing those crayons for a long time. I'm jealous. I love to color and I'd like that many crayons.
Both the kids thought they needed to help open Daddy's presents. This year was a FSU year for Daddy. He got a jersey, a mini helmet, and a polo--all FSU.

One of C's favorite super heroes right now is the Hulk. Daddy found this shirt at Wal-Mart. The hands were on sale at Wal-Mart, too. The hands "talk" every time they hit something. They growl and roar and smash. Quite annoying. They will definately be an upstairs toy. What were we thinking?


We also got K some dress up shoes. The heels on them are a little bit higher than I anticipated. She had a hard time clomping around in them. But she liked them. I like the "highwaters" with them. What do you think?

K also got a build-a-bear kit, a Tinkerbell cereal bowl, new ear rings, play food, a Tinkerbell tea set, Fisher-Price Snap 'n Style dolly and extra outfit (it's like an over-sized Polly Pocket), Elmo ornament, bath toys, Elmo and Ernie K'nex, and a new shovel. She is ready to shovel snow. (It looks like she is hitting me in the head, but she's really not).C also got his own copy of Mr. Popper's Penguins. He is so excited that he can read it any time he wants. And since we had to return the copy to the library, now he can finish reading it. he also got Uno, Battleship, a new cereal bowl, Crayola pencils, Cars movie cars, Etch-A-Sketch, Indiana Jones ornament, a Star Wars t-shirt, and the movie Madagascar.

Daddy also got the new Batman movie, 2 books, 2 new sweaters, a new tie, a James Bond calendar, a new softball, and a new shaver. Funny face for the shaver?!?! Daddy actually bought it himself the day after T-giving. This is his surprised face. I married such a funny man.
I got new S&P's, a new book, 2 new movies, new bracelets, new slides for my necklace, a computer table, and new pink fleece pants. The last and best present that I got---a very nice framed and matted FSU picture. It is so cool looking! I just can't decide where to put it. For those who know my house, any suggestions? :)

Loved seeing the pictures, sounds like everybody got something they liked. Love Ben's "surprised" face! How about hanging the FSU pic in the laundry room, then when you do laundry, you can see your picture and smile! Anything to make laundry enjoyable ;-)
