Merry Christmas!

This year we were awaken a little earlier than last year. Emma tossed and turned all night, constantly checking the clock and asking Nannie if Santa had been here yet. The girls loved all their presents and I loved all my presents. We had a great day hanging out together. We started a new tradition of going to the movies on Christmas day. It didn't work out too well for us. The theater was super crowded and we ended up in the very front of the theater. We saw Marley and Me. It was really good. The dog/actor was Hilarious! I laughed so loud that the people near us surely thought I was a nutsy dog person. Oh wait. I am. Either way, we had a great time! Below are some pics of our morning...

Em with her American Girl from Grandad (also posing in her new PJs which all the girls received).


Paige on her out-of-control skateboard. Don't you love her outfit? Skater bracelet, complete with spikes and mammoth crocs.....and NO pants!


It was wet outside today (of course since they got bikes and it hasn't rained in a month!), so Em took a test run thru the kitchen!


Soph was thrilled with Grandad's choice of Webkinz. You can't go wrong with a webkinz!


Paige got panda just like one that I had when I was little. Except now it comes with a DVD explaining how pandas are almost extinct.


A little bag of jewelry from her stocking.


A VERY exciting pencil! So easy to please!


Just woke up and pulling down the stockings first.


Nannie leads the pack to the goods!
