Christmas Love Part I

Hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone.  We had a fabulously relaxing, blessed and happy holiday with my parents in tow.  I'm still smiling at the thought of our 5 solid days of quality family togetherness.  It definitely helps matters when there are 2 extra adults to share in the overload of kid time, so that added to the happy.  In an attempt to wrap up our festivities, we'll be sharing a plethora of holiday geared posts.  Too much holiday cheer to wrap up into one. 

To kick off the season of giving, we allowed the kiddos to open their G-ma V and G-pa Marc gifts prior to Christmas week.  We missed them this Christmas, but they had an opportunity to go to England for 5 days and had a fantastic trip.  Christmas is also Marc's birthday, so this was well deserved.  As is the norm, they spoiled the little ones and us big ones.  Their generosity overwhelms us each and every year.

 Squirt was gifted 3 appliances for her play kitchen. Huge hit for our little busy body.

 This Lego set was assembled, in full, almost immediately following.  It's amazing how our little 5 year old can put these things together on his own.  Puts his Mama to shame.

 Who would have thought a Camel back would make for a successfully exciting Christmas gift for a 5 year old?  Only Dude.  This will come in handy for our hiking and let's face it, even a walk around the block.  He gets tired ridiculously fast.

 Squirt thought Dad's shiny new tools were rather awesome.

 Introducing my new, soft as a baby's butt, leather camera purse.  Exactly what this girl wanted to keep my camera baby safe and sound. 

 
How darling is this?  Squirt will ADORE riding around the hood on this pink beauty come Spring. 
 


THANKS Mom and Marc.  We feel loved and spoiled year round, but especially at Christmas.  Can't wait to share all our gifts with you in person, hopefully soon!
