Jack's 1st Christmas!

What a great day! Doug and I decided to not exchange gifts this year which I personally think was a great idea! It was so much fun for us to just watch the kids open gifts! The big gifts this year were Xbox, cell phones, ugg boots, juicy couture, and a scooter called a "fusion". I think AJ would say his big gift was the xbox from his sister, Ali's fav gift was probably getting her cell phone back since she's been without it (long story) for "exactly 40 days!" Ali said. And Ryan got a lot of new games for his Wii and a fusion scooter which is just a different version of the Razor. Last but certainly not least, Jack was the most fun to watch since he had more fun playing with what the gift came in than the actual gift. His big gift this year was an activity house which is VERY cool! Really good for crawlers or in his case, babies that are about to crawl at any moment! Although Doug and I did not exchange gifts, our very thoughtful kids put together a gift certificate for us to have a night to ourselves with dinner and a movie next week while my mom is here. So thoughtful and just what we need!
Well, I know some of you reading this are enjoying the snow or at least very cold weather but here, today, is going to be about 70 degrees so it's not so Christmas-like around here other than the lights at night. For all friends and family that sent gifts, thank you so much! Each and every one of you is a blessing to our family and we look forward to making lots of memories with you this coming 2008!
Here's some pics from yesterday. Enjoy!




And I couldn't resist this great picture of the boys right at bedtime. How precious!
