Christmas 2009

Christmas was a wonderful day filled with family and fun!!! We woke up and enjoyed Christmas morning as a family. Then headed to Evan and Kelly's for Christmas breakfast. We rushed home for a quick nap and headed to my Mom and Dad's for Christmas dinner and the Mickelsen family program. It was such a special day and was filled with magic and joy!
Dorothy's list to Santa:
Hair salon
Cash register for said Hair salon
Twin babies
Dorothy who had a really HARD time posing for this picture because she was SOOOOOO excited about playing with her hair salon!


Preston's list to Santa:
Mickey Choo-Choo
Zhu Zhu pets drive car
(thank goodness Santa scored some of those in October on a whim?)
Rocky robot truck
Pressy in front of his presents!
.
Violet's list to Santa (according to Dorothy):
Rose petal castle
Baby doll
Zhu Zhu pets?!
Violet in front of her presents!

Playing with all the loot Santa brought!

Daddy and Pressy!

The girls (Violet had no clue what was going on and was more interested in playing with EVERYONE's presents but her own!!)

Pressy happy as a clam with his Mickey choo-choo!


Someone may or may not have read the warning all over the Zhu Zhu pets to KEEP AWAY FROM HAIR!!! It had to be secretly extracted with scissors!

Grandpa and Aleeya!

During the play!

The cast of the Nativity!

The girls before the Christmas feast!

The girls worn out after a wonderful Christmas!

A very sleepy and happy little Dorothy off to bed!

John was the same way as Violet...more interested in everyone else's presents than his own. Looks like you guys had a wonderful Christmas!!

How exciting is it to be by family finally! I can't imagine. One day my kids will know their cousins.

I am glad that you guys had such a great Christmas. I can't believe how big Dorothy and Preston have gotten. Has it really been 21/2 years since you moved from Florida? That seems crazy. Thank goodness for blogs so we can keep in touch!
