Merry Christmas!

We thought for sure the kids would be up super early. We asked Raymond to stay in bed until 7, that way Ashlynn could get some sleep ( she had been sleeping until almost 830 almost everyday). Right at 7 we heard Raymond come upstairs. I convinced him to wait another 15 mins to wake the girls up. I woke Ashlynn up. She was so sleepy and didnt understand why we were getting her up.

This has turned into a classic picture. It is so very tortuous to the kids though. They can see their stockings put cant touch them until mom gets a good picture.

Raymond got alot of cool stuff. Star Wars action figures, a giant candy fish, a movie. You know boy stuff.

Ashlynn, still sleepy loved pulling all the snacks out of her stocking. She loved her earrings and sunglasses too

When Kayann saw her movie she exclaimed "barbie Pegasus, I have always wanted this!"

Kaylee loved her movie, chapstick and nail polish

Santa even left a stocking full of tennis balls for Takoda

Santa brought Ashlynn her very favorite:

She wouldnt get off it. She even ate her snacks on it! She only rides if its playing the music. But she rides like a maniac.

The girls got brand new barbies. Not any barbies but fairies and princesses!

Raymond is a bit of a Star Wars fanatic right now. He was so surprised to open his AT AT

Besides my expresso machine, my apple peeler is my favorite. We use it alot. Just for fun. The kids think it is pretty cool

My favorite part of Christmas is seeing how excited the kids are to give gifts to the people in their family. Of course the love getting gifts just as much
