Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!

Santa came to see us and here are just some pictures of our fun Christmas day!! We are still recovering from an incredibly busy Christmas day/week/month - so I hope to have more energy to type later!! We had a very Merry Christmas and hope you all did too!!


Ali's only requests for Christmas were "a kitchen and a baby!"....and she got her wish! Thank you Santa! And lots of matching clothes for the girls!! (which makes me soooo excited!)






Ali coming in to check out her loot Christmas morning!



Testing out the microwave!





And a baby too! Yay!




Now, on to the stocking....







Rhodes hanging out, excited for her first Christmas! As you can see, I am a super cool (nerd) mom, and got the girls matching pajamas and myself some too! :) I am sure we were a sight to see, but it was oh so fun for me!!





Ali got a little pink tricycle too...



Showing daddy how to dump the stocking...which she loved to do!







Now, helping daddy open presents.....


Daddy got a new rain coat! :)



And Rockband for his Wii.....not sure what Santa was thinking with this one!!!



Daddy and baby Rhodes



Ali playing with Uncle Sig


Sweet Rhodes sleeping through the presents



A beautiful shot of Mama and her girls in matching pjs.
The little things kids pick up on - Ali went into the kitchen and got one of my potholders to get her baby (yes, her baby) out of the oven! Everything was going in that oven, but at least she knew she needed the potholder so she wouldn't burn her hand! :)




Ali getting a "turn" at Rockband


Then, on Friday, Christmas continued and we went out to Lawrenceville to see Grandmama and Granddaddy, Uncle Evan and Aunt Jill and cousins Olivia and Savannah! Ali was so excited on the way there and had so much fun! She crashed in the car on the way home - it was a full and fun week!! We finally found the camera as we were about to leave so here are the few pictures we got.

Sweet hugs from Cousin Olivia!







Giving Grandmama a big hug!




I tried to get a picture last night of the girls in their new matching jackets, but this is the best I could get. :) I am so excited about new matching clothes....it's the little things!





Merry Merry Christmas!! I hope yours was filled as much love and excitement as ours was!! I am looking forward to relaxing the next 11 months to prepare for next year! :)
