Our Christmas tree this year. I only put the lights on. I allowed the kids to decorated how they wanted. They even put on the garland. They did a fabulous job dont you think? :) |
We had lost of fun. Grandma and Greg came out to visit a few weeks ago. They helped us put up the christmas tree along with all the cousins.

Kids after they decorated. |
My mom with athena. Greg loved athena after he got lost in the forest and she stayed right next to him. |
Greg and mom wanted picture with athena. Greg called her precious because he had forgot her name when she stayed with him in the forest. |
AJ wanted to show everyone he has 2 front teeth missing :) What do you want for Christmas AJ? lol |
What what on the kids christmas list you wonder? Well.. it was changing right up until christmas eve but this is what the kids wanted this year:
EJ- Fable xbox controller (check), Call of Duty: Black Op game (check), itunes card (check), renewal of xbox live (check), he also ended up getting a ripstick, clothes from aeropostale, and a whole bunch of stocking stuffers. I will have to say that with our move we had misplaced 3 of his gifts and didnt find them until 3 days before christmas! lol Poor boy would have been going on a christmas hunt instead of opening up presents that day. :)
TJ- automatic airsoft gun (check), airsoft hand gun (check), xbox live renewal (check), itune card (check), money (check), and he too got some clothes for church and from aeropostale, fable 3 xbox game. TJ was very hard to buy for this year because he really didnt know what he wanted. We ended up adlibing and he was happy I hope. :)
Rae- well Rae wanted EVERYTHING. :) Makeup, nails, clothes, you name it. She ended up with: A rock tumbler, nail spray kite, a bracelet maker, clothes, a sitting chair for her room with little cubby holes, a scrapbook maker, a ripstick, more clothes. She was cheaper to buy for so she got more stuff. She was happy but made me promise to get her a whole lot of makeup for her 12th birthday because santa didnt bring her that.
CJ- wanted a yoyo so bad. He has been nonstop playing, looking how to use it on youtube etc since christmas. So he did get 2 yoyo's for christmas along with alot of lego starwars items, some wii games, clothes, remote control cars and lots of stocking stuffers.
AJ- has to been playing with the yoyo alot since christmas. He also got some wii games, starwars items, a remote control car and helicopter, clothes and stocking stuffers.
They where all really happy this christmas. We did well..
We also did a skimpy job decorating our house outside. With us just moving in a few weeks before and my mom in town we did not get to it until last minute. This is what we did this year. Lame? Probably! lol But hey can't have everything perfect each year. :)
See the 1 row of snowflakes lights lol. Thats all we did WOOT. |
Last but not least, James spoiled me this year. He got me real pearls. A necklace, earrings and a ring. Plus he got me some Simply Vera (Vera Wong) purses and a pair of slippers to walk around the house in. :)
my stash!! :) |
Here is what I got James for christmas. He was SOOOO surprised. :)
His new iphone 4 :) |
Anyways, Christmas was great this year. Hopefully this next year brings lots of great things our way. Happy holidays to everyone.
