OK--Backtracking just a bit...I just found the camera cord so I could download pictures. Now you get to see all the wonderful things we did. Or maybe not that wonderful. Maybe just wonderful because we did them as a family!
Emma gets her first presents thus setting the trend for the rest of her life....
My Dad always wore a Santa Hat so therefore, must Mike. My traditions, my way. 'Course now the kids can't imagine Christmas without the dumb hat that has long ago lost its fuzzy ball. Which goes with the man who has long ago lost his dignity....
Twas the night before Christmas....our tradition of sleeping all together while waiting for Santa continues. What has changed is that the kids are older--so they no longer get up at 5 or 6 am, they no longer sleep on the floor but drag mattresses into the family room, and they no longer try to stay up all night waiting to hear Santa. This was taken at....drum roll....10:30 pm. However, we must say that doesn't mean they don't believe in Santa.
Jaimie, Iesha and Patriece on the Riverwalk the night Jaimie and Iesha arrived. It truly was beautiful. They wanted pictures to prove that they were outside, in December, in shirt sleeves.
And finally, skipping all the "look of surprise" pictures of people opening gifts, we get to the star of the show--who likes the paper things came in better than the actual gifts.
