Santa visited us!!

Surprise surprise...Santa came even though we were so excited we forgot to leave him so cookies and milk!! We had so much fun at our Party, we forgot to put out some treats! Poor Santa had to search the cupboards for a little snack!! :0) We decided to just let the girls wake up whenever they did, and luckily it wasn't until about 8 that they woke up! We went out and saw that Santa had come, and played with the toys for a little while before opening presents. My parents came over to watch the girls open presents.
Here's Teniah with her new clothes! Yay for new clothes!!!
Here's Kierstin with her baby and carrier! Oh how she loves this baby!!!
My cute little cheeser!
Opening presents!

After that we went over to my parents house to talk to my brother Kyle. He is doing so great in Indonesia! We are proud of him and all the hard work that he is doing!! He had just played Santa at the mall....and we all got a kick out of that one!! People of Indonesia...NO Santa isn't over 6 foot tall and skin and bones! They had done a little program at the mall and he said it was so much fun! It was GREAT to talk with him! As my only little brother, I have missed him more than I thought that I would...and it was awesome to hear his voice!

While we were eating our Christmas lunch, we all decided to go to Avatar!! So we hurried up and got in the car, and drove to the theater. OH NO...it's broken!! But, they had it at the other theater, so...back in the car, and across town, we went. There I am standing in line, and I see a sign, HEAT BROKEN! Oh great...in what movie? Of course it was ours. Luckily we lived close enough that we were able to run home really quick and grab some blankets! The movie was AMAZING!!! We all loved it!! Hard to believe that it was CGI after a while! Teniah enjoyed the visuals, but couldn't stop listening to her "Ipod"(really a mp3 player)!! Kierstin surprised me, by sitting through almost the WHOLE movie!! She lasted til the last 30 mins or so.

We had the BEST Christmas!!

It was so fun vacationing together. I can't believe we're all back to our usual routines already:( It looks like you had a fantastic Christmas--and you better say you had an awesome New Year's Eve:)
