Christmas 2009

It was a wonderful Christmas! Taylor happily holding her big jar of lemon dill pickled garlic. She knew exactly what it was when she saw it. She loves pickled garlic!
I love her face as she reaches her entire arm deep into her stocking to pull out goodies.
Matt has always been happy for all his gifts whether it's socks or tooth paste...my good boy!
Taylor would open gifts then play a little. We took turns, but when it came to Taylor, her turns took a little longer. It made for a nice relaxing morning. Enjoying each treasure as we found it.
This is a standard gift. They each get a calendar.
Ahhh, yes, the coveted crock pot. Ben almost didn't want to give this to Matt.
Sipping mimosa's as we snacked on my ham and cheese croissant filled breakfast goodness.
My mom sent up a little Alien Micro Fly which proved to be VERY entertaining. The coolest miniature flying UFO...by Alien Technologies Ltd (this is for me). I always love to get a cute picture of my children smiling...
In the afternoon we went over to visit grandma and grandpa for lunch and to open some more gifts.
We always love to visit with grandma and grandpa!
I got another family picture...which makes me happy...
At the end of the day, we went back home to relax. Matt always comes home for Christmas. Yes, he drives the entire 6.9 miles from his house to ours and spends Christmas eve night and wakes up with us on Christmas day. Ben even followed Taylor downstairs with the video camera as she woke up her big brother to get our Christmas started. It was a very nice day!
