Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning was a lot of fun this year. The kids slept in until 7:30! We read the Christmas story out of Luke, opened presents, made breakfast, then headed to my parents' house.

Xavier's favorite gift was the Vsmile Pocket.

Brooklyn's favorite gifts were her "robot cat" aka FurReal Tiger and the collection of books about her new American Girl Samantha.

The aftermath.

My mom made this dress for Brooklyn in just a couple of days. Brooklyn asked her to make a long sleeved, velvet dress with a bow. Grandma just couldn't say no! It turned out beautifully and Brooklyn loves the way it spins.

I snapped this picture of my Uncle Ed reading the kids a story. Who would have known they wouldn't go near him two years ago!
