Christmas 2008

We spend Christmas this year at home! Margaret was so excited that Santa was going to come to our house in Michigan. We went to the children's mass at church on Christmas Eve. We had to be there an hour before it started but the children were great! Then we went over to our friends that Hinds house for yummy food, a Christmas Tree activity and songs. Thank you very much Allery and Matt for sharing your Christmas Eve with us. The kids slept until 7:30 am and then we had a great morning opening Christmas presents!

Waiting to come downstairs

A tradition that we have used from the Gifford Family. Sitting at the top of the stairs to take pictures before we see what Santa has brought!

Milk, Cookies and a Note

We left Santa a note that we have been really good children!

Look what Santa left us!

We were so excited that Santa left us some really fun things!

Christmas Eve

The kids all got new P.J's from us to wear for Christmas! They were very excited with the new matching blankets that came with them!
