Merry Christmas!

The girls were up at 6:30, eager to head downstairs. Santa left a stocking full of goodies and an ITouch on both chairs in the living room! Allison couldn't believe that Taylor got an ITouch too because she didn't even ask for one. She said "I think I was extra special this year so Santa brought me two, but accidentally put one with Taylor's pile!"
They both got ITunes gift cards, socks and panties, candy, pre-wrap, Bath and Body works goodies and lottery scratchers.
Grandma and Papa were staying in a hotel so we made breakfast and waited for them to arrive before opening all of the presents.
The girls had fun playing Hedbandz, the new game Allison opened last night.
Allison couldn't wait to give Dad all of the gifts she had made both at school and at home. When he was all done opening, we left him no choice but to put it all on together for a few good laughs.
She made him this lovely crown and picture and bought him boxers covered in police cars and donuts. Hilarious and a very good sport!
Gigi loved her Barnes and Noble gift cards and other goodies.
Allison requested this Playdoh kit from Auntie Wendy and was so excited to receive it!
Taylor can't wait to get baking with this new cookbook from Auntie Lisa!
Grandma always cherishs her photo calendar.
Papa took some time to read the latest edition of my blog book.
Everyone was so thankful for all of their gifts and the time together. We spent much of the day playing with our new gadgets and games, eating way too much, and watching some football. We had a delicious turkey dinner with all of the fixings and ended the night watching ELF, which none of the grandparents had seen.
We have been blessed with so much in 2010 and look forward to all that 2011 has in store!
