I ♥ Christmas

We had a very good Christmas this year. The kids were happy and that's all that counts right?!? I really felt the meaning of Christmas this year and season. I am very grateful to have had this experience. Although I think I got the best gifts ever a Nikon D80 Camera and a Cricut. Yes, I was totally spoiled. Brandon did an excellent job surprising me. It isn't about the gifts. We spent time with family this year and that was the highlight. I think we started a new tradition with the Park side of the family and I hope we can make it work every year. We all had a fantastic time. The Hills' side did the usual. It was fun and the food was very good too. My Mom always knows how to make things taste so yummy!

Thanks to all our family who helped make our holidays so memorable!

Christmas Eve, Santa always comes to B-town on the Fire Truck
(James didn't even cry this year, he was close though)
James received "BIG BOY" under-ware from Santa
(he has kept them dry since he has put them on, even all night!)

Dantzel received her Paper (wood) doll from Santa
Dantzel's ring's from Santa
opening stocking suffers (thanks Buck and Chris)

James eating all his chocolate from his stocking (like his brown teeth)Duncan's new teddy bear
Brandon's new sheets
(yes, he is spoiled, moved from 800 thread count to 1000)
My new cricut from Brandon
I think James liked the box from my cricut very best!

So jealous that you got a cricut! You'll have to show us all your fun projects! What a fun Christmas, a camera and a cricut. Lucky!

I am so glad you posted pictures of the Hills Christmas party. I still feel so sad that we missed it! I just feel really home sick. Maybe we will be coming on a three day weekend. I think I would like to try and spend a week or so there if I can work it out. Then I might be able to spend some time with you too. We will see (I guess I always say that though). Your kids look so grown up in these pictures. I think I want to do Christmas at our own house next year. It just looks so great. I love the last picture of Nikki playing the piano. You are getting good with that new camera of yours.
