As always, Christmas was a very full and tiring day, but it was filled with lots of fun and happiness! If there was any sadness or drama, we don't have any pictures to remember it by so I want to say that there was none. -T
Christmas Morning...
 |
| Not a bad start to the day when we got them BOTH to smile at the same time! |
 |
| I want to say they look better than the scary pictures of me when I was a kid on Christmas morning |
 |
| Enough with the pictures, let's get this party started! |
 |
| From peas in her stocking to goldfish |
 |
| Anna's First Christmas |
 |
| Playing dress-up |
 |
| Mae sharing her new doll |
 |
| Happy Anna |
 |
| Doesn't EVERYONE just LOVE Veggie Tales? Josh and the Big Wall! |
 |
| More zoo animals! |
 |
| Already starting to line them up - so organized. |
 |
| I was ALMOST able to take a picture without Anna noticing |
 |
| Pausing the morning for a quick read |
 |
| Anna! You don't have to smile for EVERY picture! |
 |
| Wanting to open "the big one!" |
 |
| Buuuut...it freaked Mae out so Anna had to open it by herself (it was for the both of them) |
 |
| Once it was opened - Mae did like it. Mae played with her new toys... |
 |
| ...while Anna smiled for pictures. |
 |
| I said, "Mae played with her new toys..." |
 |
| "...while Anna smiled for pictures." |
 |
| Combining her toys into a great imaginary world |
 |
| The bed was supposed to be for her new doll, but maybe she was already worn out for the day. |
Off to Aunt Beth's...
 |
| Eyein' down Big Nate...or where he's going with that gift |
 |
| Mae's no dummy - she knows who passes out the gifts |
 |
| Enjoying the atmosphere |
 |
| Enjoying others' gifts - and getting a little rest |
 |
| Most people relaxing, Morgan and Mae wrestling, and I honestly can't figure out what Papa D's doing. |
 |
| The "no look" smile for the camera - or just having fun with Kylie an Uncle Brian |
 |
| Mom getting a needed break...and Anna finding the camera JUST in time |
Back home for a little more...
 |
| Papa D and Grandma Weez had dropped off their gifts beforehand |
 |
| It goes perfect with their new kitchen |
 |
| Mae's excitement could not be contained |
 |
| What a great Christmas! And we even ended the day getting Anna NOT to smile! |
