This year, it just didn't feel like Christmas for us. For the first time in a long time Daddy had to work on Christmas. We did however get to spend the majority of our winter break with family. Harrison (Colin and Amy's handsome son) is getting so big! We enjoyed seeing him and his family at grandma's house for our family Christmas.
The kids loved everything they got from grandma. Alex got cooking stuff complete with a cupcake maker, apron, and chef's hat. She's our little chef around here. Sydney got a couple of really great Greek mythology books. She loves the Greek myths and grandma was able to find a few good books Sydney didn't already have. If you ever need a phone a friend about Greek mythology, you can count on Sydney!
This is how we all felt when we left grandmas. We were all a little tired (late night gaming kept us up), I was still recovering from getting food poisoning. I didn't get it from any of the family parties but I picked it up from some ranch dressing at a restaurant in Casa Grande on our way to grandmas. I was out for the count for close to a week. Sydney enjoyed her new sweatshirt so much she just had to take a nap in it!
I have no idea what I was doing when the girls were opening their Christmas presents (on Christmas Eve so Dad could watch too), but this is the only picture I got of our Christmas at home. I got a few of Alex, none of the rest of the family! What was I thinking?? When we woke up on Christmas day, we ran to the living room to see what Santa brought us. We got everything we asked for!! Then it was time for Dad to go to work. While Dad was at work we went to Nana and Papas house for yet another family Christmas. What a busy season we had, but it was great fun to see all our family. From Aunt Bev's Holyoak family party, to grandma Wings house and all our cousins, to our little family of four Christmas, to the Stanley family Christmas. We had a great time!
Merry Christmas 2010! (next year I'll take more pictures)
