Our Christmas 2008

I know this post is really late. . . but i couldn't resist showing pics of our Christmas morning. . .

the girls playing with new toys from Santa. . .

the girls, Pace and I had such a great (early) Christmas this year in Buffalo! since we were going home to Utah for the 25th of december. . . we decided to have an early Christmas on the morning of the 20th. it was so much fun with the girls this year (especially with indiana. . . she couldn't wait to see what Santa brought her!)

we did the whole gammit and set out milk and cookies for the guy dressed in red, indiana just loved it. . . it was so cute, she even reminded me after we set out the cookies and carrots (for the reindeer:) that Santa would need milk too. she placed the cookie plate right in front of the fireplace so that he would see it the second he came to our house! such a good little hostess:)
of course we read the nativity story and then went to bed. when she woke up she found that Santa had been very good to her. . . he brought her a Hello Kitty play tent/house and a vanity with plenty of jewels!

the joy. . .

Santa remembered kendy too. . .

indiana really knew how to go at it this year. . .

well we all hope your holidays were wonderful and that your New Year has been off to a good start! by the way. . . our trip home was good but very tiring. . . it was worth it to see family but flying in the winter is for crazy people (especially with two chiddlers)! maybe next year the web cam will have to suffice :)
p.s. while we were gone kendy got her first tooth. . . on the 27th of december. . . Daddy the dental student is very proud!
