Merry Christmas!!

This morning Angel was up somewhere around , oh 6AM!!! When I heard her going down the hall I glanced at the clock on the dresser. I thought it said 8:06AM. I thought how wonderful she slept in this year. I then rolled over and went back to sleep. She came rushing in and woke me up. I glanced at the clock and it said 7:15AM. How could that be? Time went backwards! Then it dawned on me thru my sleepy eyes I had miss read the clock. She didn't sleep in at all. Santa really spoiled her this year. I think he brought her everything on her list and then some. It was lucky for her that she sent that letter to him nice and early. This is a picture of her stocking and gifts from just Santa. The big purple blob is a huge bean bag chair. There are roller blades, DS games, CD's, DVD's and many other things. Of course Santa brings the essentials like underwear!! That's a given. We took turns opening gifts. It was one for Mark, one for me, and two for Angel. She was thrilled with everything. I got what I asked Santa for, that was a Mario Cart for the Wii. What a fun game. I know I am hooked!
After we completed our Christmas at home we ventured over to Shannon and Andres' to have Christmas with them. Lilliana was so excited to see us come in. She thought that every gift was for her. She said to me, "I love presents Gramma!" How cute is that. I think the thing she was most excited about opening; wasn't any of the clothes of course, but the gift from Auntie Deanne, Uncle Chris and the kids. It was some sort of Dora and Diego toy and she lit up when she saw it and was so excited. She played with that all afternoon. Isatou got some real nice things too. She got quite a bit of clothing and put on a fashion show for us.

After we opened gifts the kids played and Shannon made a wonderful ham dinner. After dinner we played some games and had a fun time. Angel was wanting to get home to all of her treasures so we went on our way. It was an enjoyable and fun day with family. We love you Shannon, Andres, Isatou and Lilliana. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
