We really had a great Christmas!
I don't have a lot to say except that i am still not showered and in the same jammies that i slept in last night. Please don't judge me....I was having too much fun to take a silly old shower today!
Even though we got caught up in the commercialism of Christmas we did stop and ponder several times about the REAL meaning of today and what our celebration really should be focused on.
I think the card Jeff got for the girls sums it up best.
Below is the outside of the card and when you open it, Linus says;
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly hosts praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace and good will toward men.
That's what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown.
I could listen to that a million times.....
Happy Birthday Jesus!
Thank you God for sending the best gift we will ever receive!
I took 247 photos but will only pain you with these choice few.
Love, SuLee
We left Santa cake truffles. I think that is why he was so good to all of us. |
Look at what Grace left for Santa and the reindeer.... and she claims not to believe. :-) |
Our traditional cinnamon rolls. |
New Christmas jammies. |
Big gift for Bella, a DS game. |
Lily can't believe she got a DS too! |
Look what Grace got! |
Well, she says she wants to be a Rock Star! |
And the beloved puppy i got the other night. So worth it for the smile it put on her face. |
Hey, look up here at me! |
Cheese! |
Mommy got a matching hat too from Grandy and Sissy! |
Daddy felt left out so Mommy let him wear hers for a moment. |
DSs....kept our house very quiet today. :-) |
Is this a good look for me or what? |
Mmmm....smells nice. |
Jeff's favorite BBQ sauce from back east. Way to go Grandy and Sissy! |
Looks like Christmas kind of threw up in this room. |
Throwing myself under the bus in this photo. No shower, no make up and in my jammies! I got Wii Pac-Man in my stocking and LOVED it. |
She is just pretty! |
Talking to Mamma Peggy like a big girl. |
Silly little elf! |
Only the best for Jesus...three layers! |
See that sneaky Lily sticking her thumb in the frosting? |
The girls going at it with Wii Just Dance for kids. |
Daddy, your other right is supposed to be up in the air. |
I guess i was on the nice list. :-) |
Grace made this in kindergarten and i LOVE it! |
And look who else brought home one of my favorites. It's hard to believe Lily will be bringing home one of these next year. |
I love this nativity from my sister Betty. |
Don't you love kid crafts? |
My new decoration. |
Our mantel and the note that was left for Santa from the sitter. Santa wrote Lily a note on the back asking her to be better this year. :-) |
From my sweet sweet Bella. Probably my best gift of all. |
You know me and my love for flowers. Aren't these beautiful? |
I received this for my birthday this year from Jeff's Mom, Mamma Peggy. I LOVE it! |
I love the stocking pics. What great hats too!!
