Christmas 2008
On Christmas Eve we celebrate with my Dad's side of the family and this year it was at my parents house. Drew gets very shy around crowds, however, he decided to come to life and make some noise while my Grandfather was reading the bible. I don't think his Uncle Seth was really helping though!
The girls put on a little show for us at Christmas Eve. They signed to the song "Light of the World" They have been going to a sign language class at church for a while and work on different songs. They take this very serious (as you can see). They did a great job!
Santa Alexis and Maddi
Then we had Christmas at our house. Emme is still at the age were she is SO excited about everything she gets.

Maddi was excited about her presents but she was just really hoping to get her Nintendo DS Drew was actually not interested at all in opening his gifts. Once he opened up a ball or this tool box he was over it.
They get their "big" gift from Santa on Christmas morning and have to wait for me to come get them...so they are waiting on the stairs.

Again, Drew wasn't into opening his gifts, he was more concerned about where these cookies went and can he get some!

~Emme and her Ipod Shuffle~

FINALLY~Nintendo DS
What she really wanted!

Stockings have become a big deal around here ever since the first year Andy and I were married. Our first Christmas he opted not to fill my stocking...he learned quickly that was a big mistake! See, when I was growing up my dad would do the stockings and he would fill them really good. So now, Andy does a great job with filling them. He fills them with candy and then other things we enjoy. Maddi got a Subway gift card...her fav place. Emme got a Chick-fil-A gift card...her fav place. Uncle Seth and Maddi at Granddad's and Grandma's house on Christmas Day. We always go out to their house in the morning for breakfast and stay all day.


I hope everyone had a great Christmas and has a great New Years!
