Christmas Eve

We made it to Christmas Eve. The kids were so excited to get to open their gifts. I swear they thought dinner was never going to be over. My Dad and his wife Bonnie came over and brought dinner so I didn't have to do anything. Megan and I were busy making cookies because we hadn't had time before so it all worked out perfect. It was a different Christmas Eve without my sister Stefanie and her family but we made the best of what we had and thought about them all night!!!!!

Megan is showing Alex some love before they hand out the gifts.

They both had huge piles when they got everything separated.
Bonnie got a necklace from the kids. I think she liked it.
My Dad loved his Bears shirt sent to him by Stefanie's family. He wore it all day on Christmas. It fit perfectly!!!!!
I got a Willow Tree statue from the kids. I actually got one from each of the kids and one from Stefanie. I just love them. They look like peaceful little angels. :)
My Dad and Bonnie patiently awaiting their turns to open their gifts.
Mike must have really liked this one. He even showed teeth on the smile.
Alex loved his Nintendo DS games. Good thing that he already new he was getting the Nintendo DS on Christmas otherwise he might have wondered why he kept getting them.
Megan got the cell phone that she has been begging for. We caved and got it for her and she has either been talking on it or texting people ever since she opened it. Good thing we went with the unlimited text plan!!!!!
Mike and Megan after we were all done. We had so much fun and really enjoyed everything that we got. Thank you to everyone for all of the gifts that we received. We really missed the Keyes family. Hopefully they enjoyed their first Christmas at their new house.
