Christmas 2010

We think Mae knew it was Christmas Day. She was up in the 5 o'clock hour rearin' to go and happy and smiley. We did enjoy the day with a trip down to Grandma and Grandpa Spjut's with the grandparents and Aunt Jackie and Aunt Kylee, followed by "dinner" (lunch) at Aunt Beth's and Uncle Brian's with the Poe's and Schlensker's. Christmas at our own house was then done in the evening. Poor thing didn't even get to open a gift from Santa until almost 6:00 pm. Well, she wasn't too broken-hearted, she was pretty much spoiled all day. -T

It's 5am...you don't typically smile at this hour

Do you know it's Christmas morning?
We will take that as a yes

Mae's first Chrstmas gift (and Kylee?...I don't know)
A "My First Christmas" ornament from Aunt Jackie
Mae's first Christmas gift outfit from Aunt Kylee...little "Baby Chuch"
Grandma even had a stocking made for her
Mae just loved (and ruled) the day

Spoiled little sweetheart

Mom with an exhausted Mae at only 9:30am

At least she knows the true meaning of the day - this is her praise moment

"Christmas and Mom - life is good!"
Wuh-oh! Christmas with the Poe's/Schlensker's is a little more...eventful. Cameron just never seems to be able to get enough of his newfound cousin...aka really intriguing toy.

She survived it all though...

...and was spoiled yet again

Christmas at home

My two girls
Smile or about to cry?
"No more pictures...just my presents from Santa! It's 6pm!"
"Oh snap...it's finally time!"

"Although, I'm very worn out so I'll chill here while you open them for me."

"Ahhh...good day!"
