Christmas 2011

Christmas Day finally came and we were so excited for the gifts we were all getting each other. I think we all got GREAT gifts this year, and we were all excited about gifts we got others. Our family gets REALLY excited about Christmas...and I mean REALLY excited. Liza usually screams at least once during the day, unfortunately I didn't get a picture of it this year. But it's always fun to see which present she will scream on. :) 

Our Santa gifts, they were few because we got a Disney Cruise from him!!!

The other side of the room. 

Cute Seth. :) We were the picture takers waiting for the kids to come down the stairs. 

Oh how I love those sleepy eyes and smiley face.

Spencer seeing we were going on a cruise!!

Cute happy boy! 

D man got a cute hat and a candy cane...which he did not want to put down. 

Grandma got a GPS unit!!! She's excited!

The kids came over to see what she was screaming about. 

Tyler got some tickets from "Santa" to the Knicks vs. Jazz NBA game.

I think every boy got some kind of Beyblade, so there was lots of looking at each others and figuring out which one was best.

D got a cell phone...no he got two cell phones, so he started to play with it and said "hello?" But the best part was when he put it on his shoulder to hold it up to his ear. 

Had to switch arms.

This is such a cool toy for a little kid!! Simple and so fun. 

After we opened all the Santa gifts and stockings, we all got ready for church and went. 
On the way home though one little boy was tuckered out. 

Then we started with the rest of the gifts. Did you notice that after church we all got BACK into our pjs. Yep even the adults, well except for Liza's family because they had just brought regular clothes. 

The BEST gift of all time?!!?! Seth's! He got a ticket to go to UNC to see a college game!!!!! Dad was taking him and Tyler and W to see the game. This is his all time favorite team and he was SOOOO excited to go. We were all thrilled for him. I believe that both Liza and I screamed with him on that one! 

Christmas is such a special time of the year, a time we remember what is truly important in life. Christ and family. I'm so glad we were able to have my whole family together again to spend so much time together and have a blast with each other. We are pretty awesome.

Such a cute sleepy boy in his suit! And it does look like a great time was had by all! And, of course you get BACK into your PJs. I regularly do this at my house on Sundays. Even when it is not Christmas! :) PS- How did Spencer find out about the cruise?
