Christmas Morning

I am just now getting around to posting Christmas pictures. I have so many pictures and really wanted it to be a cute post so I just kept putting it off.
We drove down to be with Jason's family on Christmas Eve and stayed for a few days. Jason had a lot of time off work, which is rare, and so we really tried to take advantage by spending as much time together as a family as possible. We played with our new things, watched movies, went out to eat, etc. It was fabulous. We had a really great Christmas this year and really decided to spoil ourselves. We haven't really gotten ourselves anything for Christmas since we've been married and so we decided to go all out this year. We got ourselves a Wii! We absolutely love it and even Allary's been getting in on the fun. We also got a nice new flat screen TV (much needed since we returned the TV we had been borrowing and would not have a TV when we move). It was fun to spend big for once and we are really enjoying our presents.
So finally, here are a whole bunch of Christmas pictures.

A really cute talking doll from Grandma and Grandpa M.


Kung Fu Panda! She saw this in the theater and loved it.


100's of blocks. This girl loves to build.


Her very own camera. I will post some of her shots later.


New shirt from Grandma and Grandpa M.



Allary got Jason some awesome Batman pajamas.


Grandma S. got the little girls these very large Barbie dolls. Allary loves it.


Tinkerbell playset from cousin Allyson.


We had 17 people in all at the house for Christmas Eve and morning. That's a lot of presents and a lot of wrapping paper!
Allary and her cousin Devaun rolling around in the mayhem.


Allary and her Christmas haul.

We got Jason's grandma this apron with a photo of Allary on it. C'mon, that's just cute!

As tradition, we all go over to Jason's grandparents' house Christmas morning after opening presents for a large delicious breakfast feast, then Grandpa reads a story to all the great grandkids before opening more presents. I love this shot of him reading to them.


I just thought this was a cute shot of my hubby.

We had a wonderful Christmas. It was so fun to share in Allary's excitement and to see the magic of the season through her eyes.

The pictures in the wrapping paper are cute. There sure is a lot of mess when it's all said and done! Glad you guys had a great Christmas!
