Merry Christmas 2009

Christmas 2009 was the best Christmas to date. On Christmas Eve Frank's family came to our house to have dinner and open presents then we ended the night at Frank's Uncle Eddie's house. It was a lot of fun but the kids were anxious to get home and go to bed so Santa would come. All the way home Amelia and Elliott were on the look out for Santa's sleigh.

Christmas morning Amelia woke up and tried to run to the tree but we made her wait for Elliott so everyone could go together. Santa brought them both what they asked for. Amelia got a hot pink ipod and Elliott got Spike the Dinosaur. The kids stayed in their pajamas all day long and played for 12 hours straight. Nana and Aunt Brenda and Uncle Ralph came over for lunch and Uncle Eric and Aunt Kristina and Cousins Daniel and Noah came over to play. Grandma Rosie and Grandpa stopped by in the evening to visit also.

Amelia loved her ipod and bug maker the best. She made bug after bug. Elliott wore out the battery of his Spike Dinosaur and played and played with his hot wheels. They both loved the Smart Sports game Grandma Rosie and Grandpa got them.

The best part of the day was when Amelia and Elliott put Baby Jesus in the manger and wished him a Happy Birthday. They both understand that Christmas is the celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. It was a wonderful Christmas filled with the love of our family. We look forward to many more like this one.
