Christmas 2010

This year was a blast with two little children. Arabella was more into it than last year, but Evan just wanted to eat the wrapping paper. Christmas Eve stunk for me because Adam had to sleep and go to work at midnight, so I was left to make sure everything was good to go for Christmas day. Between Christmas Eve and Christmas day I took over 500 pictures, so hang in there with me. Here's just a fraction of our Christmas day photos.



Santa brought Arabella a bike, Evan a tool bench, and both kids a box of sidewalk chalk; and of course the stockings of goodies.



Arabella asked Santa for a bike and she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw it sitting down stairs.

She kept her eye on the bike the entire way down stairs.

Perfect fit and she climbed right up on it with no help.

Evan discovered the chalk first so of course Arabella had to investigate.

Evan loves his new tool bench.

So many goodies in such a little stocking.

Evan didn't want to stick his hand in the stocking so Daddy helped.

I'm not sure how much time Evan will get with his new toy after Arabella discovered it came with a hammer.

Mommy's little elves.



Mmmmm...fiber.



Arabella nearly exploded when she opened her gift and saw an Olivia doll inside.

Arabella helped wrap their gift for Daddy and she even colored the tag for him.

It was a wonderful, laid back day full of great food, an amazing family and tons of laughter. I love moments like these.
