Christmas Recap 2009

The gift opening began bright and early. I was mean and made the kids wait until I was showered and dressed before they could start. :)

Meili got the hang of it after a very brief present-opening demonstration.

Taylor-can't wait to hit the beach nerd-style with his metal detector..

One very excited cell phone owner...
Noah (aka Mr. Dsi)

Xander-very happy with his haul.

I still can't believe the anti-gravity r/c car really works on the wall-so cool!

and Meili Grace. I still think she enjoyed the goldfish best.

Meili Grace snapping her fingers and rockin' out to the music from her gumball machine-

Our best gift this year was not having to wonder where Meili was at or when she would arrive. She was right here with her family, where she belongs.

The kids enjoying the boost in the W.ii inventory.

Matt received the 5th book in The Lightning Thief series.

I hope this isn't an indication of how the series ends...
