Merry Christmas

Christmas Morning we woke up to stockings and a delish Christmas breakfast. Mom made a breakfast casserole, fresh fruit salad, and Emily made Mom's maple twist!
Stocking Fun! Always one of my favorite parts of Christmas. Being around Parker and Hannah made Christmas feel more magical. They were so cute and excited about everything.
After stockings we all opened gifts. Parker and Hannah were so excited to see what Santa got them. Parker got a bike and Clifford and Hannah got a doll house and a doll. The adults then took turns so we could see what everyone got. It was a relaxing Christmas morning. Thanks everyone for my gifts, I loved everything!
Look at all the presents!! It was so great being with so much family on Christmas!
Hannah is so pretty! I chose the one without her smiling, I think it is so cute! She has naturally red lips...man that would be a dream :)
Emily and Russ
Ashli playing with Christmas Toys! Showing the boys how it is done! GO ASHLI!
Mom relaxing after all the festivities of the day including making a delicious Christmas dinner! She is wearing the cute apron that Ashli and Michael gave her! It was a very Merry Christmas! Thanks Mom and Dad for a great Christmas weekend!
P.S. Of course while in Ridgecrest we took a few trips to the drive through dairy and also had breadsticks and peanut butter pizza. Crest was closed the majority of the time...whats up with that? Not that I needed a donut after all the great Christmas food :) Oh, we also play FARKLE almost every night....we miss you Steve and Jaime. Next fam event we need to convert everyone!
Ashli took this cute picture of the kids with her fancy new camera lense. Soooo cute!
Happy New Year! I hope 2010 is a fabulous year for everyone!

I agree with Alli...that maple twist does look good. I'm going to have to try that one out.
