What a fantastic way to start Christmas day! I can't remember the last time we had a white Christmas in Dallas, if ever. Here's a picture of our little house covered in snow...
And our neighborhood...
This was the first time since Josh and I were married that we woke up in our own home on Christmas day. I really enjoyed that. We went over to Jimmy and Jill's fairly early to watch Kalie and Cole open their Santa gifts....they obviously were very good kids this year, because Santa brought them lots of fun presents! It was so much fun to watch them open all of their gifts!
Cole made sure that Santa enjoyed some cookies and milk...
Kalie got a pair of pink Uggs from Jewelz (my mom)...she was thrilled!
Cole was very excited about the laser tag guns he got...he has worn them out over the past few days!
Kalie and Jill wrote Jimmy a poem about one of the gifts they got him. It was precious...
Kalie, Josh and I...
Jewelz and Cole....
Kalie with her sequined Converse shoes that Josh and I got her. Kalie loves anything sparkly...she fits into our family quite nicely!
Chloe had fun playing with all of the tissue, paper and bows...
Before we opened our stockings from mom....we always save them for last!
Jill and I with the pups....
Merry Christmas from our family to yours! And Happy New Year's Eve!! I can't believe that 2009 has come and gone. It was a great year filled with many blessings! Welcome 2010!!!
