Christmas Day!

We've had such fun, full days lately, 
I haven't had time to take many pictures, 
let alone post to our blog!  
It's been a wonderful Christmas season.  
Lots of family time and good food, game playing, movie watching and RELAXING!
We spent Christmas morning playing with our new "toys", snacking, 
 and wearing our pj's for most of the rainy day.
As the four of us curled up on the sofa together, wrapped up in blankets, 
looking at the pretty glow from our Christmas tree lights...
I think we all agreed with Ambry's sentiment, 
"This was the BEST Christmas ever!"
 Santa drank his milk and ate his cookies!
 So excited to see the gifts that Santa left!
 Trey, looking through the gifts in his stocking...
he still hasn't noticed the four-wheeler keys!
 He finally sees the keys, and thinks they are a keychain for his
keychain collection.  Then it sinks in... four wheeler keys!
 We ran all over the house looking for a four-wheeler!
Where did Santa leave it?  It must be here, 
otherwise why would there be keys!?
Trey's reaction when he finally looks in the garage!
 SO excited!!!  Now father and son have matching green Honda Recons!
And Santa surprised mommy with a new bike!
I didn't notice it parked out on the deck until Daddy told me to look out the window! 
Lots of rides coming up!
Thrilled for her angry birds stuffed animals! 
A simple Christmas morning breakfast of cream cheese sausage balls,
mini-cinis, pigs in blankets and grits and fruit!  Delicious!
Our Christmas Dinner!
I was so proud I made it all myself, and Luke and the kids 
devoured it!
Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked macaroni and cheese,
green beans, roasted carrots, squash casserole, frozen cranberry delight,
rolls, and brownies with peppermint ice cream for dessert!
MMMMM!
(Thank you Grammy and Grumps for the funny "crackers"!)
We all tried to come up with different things to make with our cracker hats... 
 Santa was techno-savvy this year...
He gifted Trey and Ambry with ipods!
They have really enjoyed downloading new apps
and music!  Cam-Wow is one of their favorites!
Here, they were having a light saber duel!!!
My how times have changed!
We're blessed beyond belief!
So thankful for our family, friends, nice gifts and memories made,
but forever grateful for a Savior that loves us no matter what!
Jesus Christ, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life...
He's the GREATEST Christmas gift of ALL!
