The Christmas Story

Oh I just LOVE this! Sometimes as adults we get so busy shopping for presents, decorating the house, baking goodies that we forget the real meaning of Christmas. Well, these children do a wonderful job of bringing you back to the Christmas story, and the reason we celebrate.

Christmas with the Slattery's

Takara and Emily got cameras

Emily also asked for hand sanitizer for Christmas...a girl after my own heart.

Jackson's hands, don't you love the dimples

And Takara's feet, so sweet.

Children make Christmas so much fun. They were so excited from beginning to end, and so grateful for all their gifts. The little girls each got a doll, but it was put in an old check book box...they were so excited to get checks! They kept jumping up and down say "we can write checks, we can write checks!" It was so cute. I can't wait until next year when we have our own little guy to spend Christmas with.

Christmas Eve 2009

Snow canceled our travel plans for Christmas this year, but I can't complain too much because is was beautiful outside. I love waking up to fresh snow on the ground. We didn't get as much as I expected, but they say more is coming so we are staying put. I spent most of the day baking and knitting (all the things you should be doing when a blizzard hits).

Norton even had a blast in the snow today... for a few minutes anyway, and then just like his mom (I mean master) he enjoyed looking out the window at all the snow while we snuggled up in a nice warm house.

I hope every one is safe and warm just like the Slattery's are today!

I also wanted to share the pictures we took for Christmas this year. I especially like these, because being pregnant, I am not looking so hot in pictures these days....so this shot just shows my legs, which I can live with.
