Christmas

Christmas this year was the best yet. All of my sisters were home with their families. We had a wonderful Christmas Eve. Everyone came out to our house. We played games (of course). We had soup and sandwiches for supper (of course). Then we went to church (of course). Funny thing this year - so many people were confusing me and Carmen. So many people came up to me and said how much we look alike. After church we had Christmas with my side of the family. It was so much fun with the kids this year. I just smile thinking about it. Everything was exciting to Adam - even clothes!



Christmas morning was so wonderful. It was just the four of us. Their little faces looking at all that was under the tree and that Santa had eaten his cookies and drank his milk. These are the moments I want to remember forever. Megan went right along like she knew what she was doing. She just watched Adam and did everything he did. I just can't say enough how cute they were! I know they are my kids and I'm a little prejudiced.... Oh yah - I finally got a new wedding ring after losing mine in AZ. Its so pretty!

Later Christmas day we went to Scott's mom's house. Its always crazy fun there. We had a good dinner and then opened presents. Megan got a doll that makes sounds when you put the pacifier in her mouth. She also starts to close her eyes and it looks a little creepy. After presents we played games. We had so much fun.



Then on Saturday we had Christmas number 4. We went to my parents for our extended family gathering. The weather was so nice. Here is Adam, Sylvie, Aunt Mandy and Uncle Jeremy sword fighting in the front yard. Somehow Uncle Jeremy won this battle. I was so happy to have both my sisters here. Its so great to see them and spend time with them. It was wonderful to have Grandma & Grandpa there too.



A finally, just barely in January, we had our final Christmas celebration. Scott's Dad came down. He had some problems before and couldn't come any earlier. But we were glad to have them here. Max, Megan and Adam are seen here opening up an Elmo chair for Megan. I think all the kids helped all the kids open their presents. And that concludes our many Christmases.
