Our Christmas Morning

The day began at 8:00 a.m. when Nancy finally woke Zayda up. She had such a hard time falling asleep the night before and had had such a busy day that I think she was just exhausted. But, once she was up, she was crazy excited!!! She immediately looked to see if Santa had eaten her cookies that she had left. He had and much to her concern, he had left a couple of other things. Santa had written her a note and while he had been writing he must have taken off his glasses and his glove and accidently left them at our house. Later on, she found his driver's license too. She took them everywhere she went that day to show everyone what he left at her house. Garrett was much more into opening presents than I thought he would be. He really seemed to enjoy the day too. Santa was very good to our kids this year so they must have been really good!!
Our Christmas Tree

This was Zayda's Christmas Tree in her room. Santa wrote her a letter and told her that since she had been such a good girl and she had been such a good help with her brother that he left her a special present under the tree in her room. Once she got back there, she found this present and a special ribbon hanging on her tree that was the "Best Decorated Tree" award from Santa. This present happened to be the American Girl doll "Ruthie" that she had asked for.


It think Daddy was more excited about the Lincoln Logs than Garrett was. None the less, Keith enjoys building things while Garrett enjoys knocking them down.



Zayda was really excited about her American Girl Movie Kit Kittredge. She also decided that she needed to wear her new gymnastics leotard.


Garrett once again on top of the present!!
