Christmas 2010

I know I am slow at posting this year. Time has just flown by! Christmas is over, the tree is down, and all the new toys have finally found a home. I think I am ready to get back into the groove of every day living (at least until the next holiday). Christmas Eve day was spent at Chris and Chuck's house. We did manage to get our traditional family picture taken in front of their fireplace. After dinner, we came home and let the girls open their gifts from us. They are so spoiled! Then we had to set out cookies, milk and carrots for Santa and his reindeer. Bright and early Christmas morning, Lexi bounded into our room and wanted to know if we had seen Santa. We said we hadn't seen him, but that he probably left the gifts and ran to get to all the other houses in time. We came downstairs to find that Santa had indeed come in the night! The girls loved their gifts from Santa. After lunch at home, we left for G.G. Eileen's house. We got there around 3 pm and opened yet more presents. After dinner at G.G.'s we finally made it to Grandpa Gary's house. The kids were tucked into bed and then the adults opened their gifts. That was a GREAT idea! Then, after church and lunch on Sunday we let the kids open their gifts. They all had so much fun and loved their gifts... thanks everyone! The next weekend (New Year's Day) we set out once again for Grandpa Gary's house for the Ginter Christmas. Good to see everyone there! Enjoy the pictures!!
