Christmas 2009

The decorations have been down for a few days, the boxes have gone with the garbage and the exchanges have been made, but we still have great memories of Christmas 2009!

M had to work on Christmas Eve, so we did our traditional Christmas Eve present unwrapping early. M had the giggles during the picture.


We started Christmas Eve at Grandma Trusty's house. When we came home, L wrote a letter to Santa and put out the cookies and milk.


He made sure to move the fireplace screen to the side so that Santa didn't knock it over and make a lot of noise (Santa is noisy)!


Here is L and Chloe while L models his new PJ's.


Then, we just sat around and waited for Santa to arrive...


And despite all of the threats and warnings during the year, Santa delivered as usual! Here is our sad little "Santa Tree" that sits downstairs for Santa to put the presents under.


L and M have to stay upstairs until we check things out and make sure Santa actually came. It is the longest 30 seconds of their lives!


Opening presents...



Grandma and Grandpa always swing by on Christmas morning to see what everyone got. After we get ready for the day, we go to their house to celebrate.







L got a new putter from the Kearns Family. I don't know what he thought was better; the putter, or the fact that his Uncle Jason picked it out for him!


We spent the rest of the day eating yummy food (the only time of the year M gets funeral potatoes!)


The day after Christmas, we had a few exchanges to make and some shopping to do!



We hope your Christmas was as memorable as ours. We wish you all a great 2010!
