Christmas, Christmas, Christmas!

We had a WONDERFUL Holiday and hope everyone had a super duper time as well!

Like Thanksgiving, I haven't edited the at all .... so view at your own risk - HA!http://www1.snapfish.com/share/p=36641199490461106/l=343042765/g=7281183/otsc=SYE/otsi=SALB

We've had the cruddies at our house, but here is a semi-Christmas post .... finally.

Christmas was GREAT - really great.
We really enjoy having everyone together. I know Emily really enjoys having everyone here!

Christmas Eve started with Nana and Grandfather coming over with some window clings (Santa eventually melted, but he stayed up for a little over a week!)
Me Me, Paw Paw and Austen came next. Me Me and Paw Paw's truck was loaded down like Santa himself stopped off at their house before they left Winnie!
We had our standard Mexican Christmas Eve meal (Tamales, Chili, Spanish Rice, Beans, Queso, and Guacamole .... Yummy!)
We opened some gifts (Thank you EVERYONE .... wow, we were spoiled!!!) and visited.
We tried to go see Christmas lights, but didn't find too many.
When we came home we had Christmas punch (Big Red and frozen pineapple juice!) and probably opened more gifts (but I can't remember for sure!)

We went to bed late and waited for Santa!

Santa brought Emily a camera and Elliot a ball toy (and ate a plate full of cookies .. I think he's still full!)

Christmas Day brought two rounds of present opening.
First the ones we didn't open on Christmas Eve with Me Me, Paw Paw and Austen and then ones with Chris, Trina, Marshall, Lynda, Cody and Amy (Thank you for all the goodies .... again we were spoiled!!!).
Emily and Elliot were in total present over-load. Emily helped everyone open their presents and Elliot just ate the wrapping paper!

Christmas we had a yummy Ham, (the chicken caught on fire ... so no chicken) green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, potatoes o'brien, cold broccoli salad and a poor attempt at jail house rolls.

After we ate and ate and ate we visited some more.

Elliot was sick and Me Me and Austen were sneezing from their cat allergies (sorry guys!!!), but we were happy to have everyone here!

Emily and Wayne had MORE presents to open in San Antonio on Saturday. Unfortunately Elliot and I didn't get to go because his cold turned into a double ear infection (OWCH!!) but Emily helped us open our gifts when they got home - once again we were completely spoiled!

Thank you again to everyone! I still can't believe it's 2008!!!

PS - our house is completely over-run with toys now - HA
