FL Christmas 2010

Everyone at dinner. And a yummy dinner it was.

Grandma being a good sport.

Dad got mom a really pretty ring. She was very surprised.

I really wanted this present that Unca got! It's a flag for your mail box. But it's an FSU spear. How cool is that. I actually had it in my stuff and someone told and he took it back.

Unca and S got us all picture books. They were sneaky about it. They emailed Sissy and I asked for pictures. Little did we know we were getting one too. Funny side note: when they were handing them out Unca said "open your books now" Duh. We haven't opened them yet.

He was so proud of that bag cuz it lit up and played music and annoyed the rest of us.

C had been wanting this book for a very long time. It is kinda a cool book.

Go Noles! My kids got "uniforms" 2 years ago. Now it's EJ's turn.

Sissy got K some makeup. So we all got makeovers later. We were very shiny.

Sissy got C some Lego candy. He still has some left!

Unca got K a princess pool. Will be a little while til she uses it (as I type it is 8 degrees out. It was -2 this morning)

Grandma and Papa got each of the grandkids a recordable book. It's a poes about Christmas and they each got to read/record the pages. So the kids will always have a rememberance of their grandparents. What a neat keep sake!

Isn't that the awesomest snuggie?

This was a tree across from my brother's house. Cool looking huh?

Christmas 2010

Do they look like brothers or what?

She got packing tape. I"m sure there is a story behind that somewhere.

She got her purple hippo pillow pet! She has been wanting that thing for almost forever!

Good but sad book.

To wear while he rides his horses.

He got these things called magforms. They are from QVC and they are pretty awesome. K wants the purple set.

Crazy girl.

Christmas 2010 was spent in many different places this year. We "did Christmas" in New York when we were together with Daddy's family. The 4 of us "did Christmas" a few days before we left for Pensacola where we "did Chritmas" actually on Christmas day with my family. This year's Chritmas was a little lean due to circumstances but we all still made out pretty good.

I've just now realized that I never put pix up of NY Christmas so we will start with those. Then tomorrow's post will be FL pix. I'm so behind (and so confused!) And sorry if the pictures are first and the blogging is second. I'm sick and don't feel like re-arranging everything. You'll be OK :)

And it came to pass in those days...........

I have no idea how to rotate video! So sorry! You might have to turn your head.

Anyways. I haven't had much time to blog and I am so far behind! I thought I'd give you one quick blog. This is from Christmas day which will get it's own post later. But I thought this deserved one all its own. And it won't take me long--so then I can say "I blogged!"

Grandma and Papa asked C to read the Christmas story this year. I was a little worried that he would stumble on some of the hard words. (I meant to have him practice but in all the business-kept forgetting.) (He did practice one time with Unca right before) I was so proud of how good he did! That's my boy!

So enjoy the best reading of the Christmas story ever (until next year anyways).

Happy Birthday!

To my favorite brother! He's getting old!
