Christmas Morning 2009

We were up and at em' at about 7:45 and had to wake up poor Brooklyn who was still a little groggy.  The girls came out and were so excited about Santa's gifts we had to encourage them to look in stockings and open other gifts.  Dakota needed a little help with her stocking and Katie was very excited to do so.

Katie's little people town.

Brooklyn's little people house. . . are you noticing a theme?

Monster Truck Wii

Daddy with his trusty Gerber.

Thanks Aunty Vicki they love them!

The Gerber finally made it through all that fedex tape and Trav has his blue tooth radio so that those pesky MP's wont pull him over for talking on the cell phone.  I am going to add that he was out in the cold for hours over the next few days installing, pulling his amp and woofer out of the attic (they haven't been used in years) and learning to use his new system.  He kept discovering new tricks and would have to come in and tell me about them.  I do believe it was a perfect gift for him!

 

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Maughan the horse and carriage go perfectly with their little people castle from last christmas she loves it!

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Maughan Monkey now sleeps with her every night!

Thank you Aunt Vicki and hunka TT!

All those pretty bows!

Dakota's stocking loot.

Thank you all so much for all of the wonderful Christmas presents!  They were wonderful and have been well loved.  Dad and Mom,  Trav put his new memory into his lap top the moment it was out of the bag and has been loving the faster computer ever since!  Katie can't wait to start her ice skating lessons next year and was super excited to see that she could finally have her new ice skates thank you Grandma and Grandpa Hollingshead and thanks for Brooklyn's bus it was a favorite little people item and has been fought over a lot since it was unwrapped.   Grandma and Grandpa Maughan Trav and I can't wait to cook some dutch oven chicken in the awesome dutch oven you sent thanks very much!

Thanks for all the cookies and treats brought over by friends they were devoured and much time at the gym will hopefully help me burn them off.   Jamie thanks for the wonderful book it's a favorite of mine and now I get to have my own copy!   I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and enjoyed being together as families this holiday season.  May your 2010 be blessed with happiness and love!
