Catching you up on our Christmas

Whew~what a busy week. Sean arrived home from work, early Wednesday morning, got cleaned up and packed, and off we headed to Florida....for the first Christmas with my family, in years! Actually, I don't think we've ever been down there for the holidays, other than 1 Thanksgiving many moons ago. Anyhow, it was hectic, crazy, and totally worth it.

The kids were a little concerned that Santa wouldn't find them down in Orlando, but much to their relief, he didn't disappoint. Grandma even went to a whole lot of trouble, putting up a beautiful tree and baking cookies for the big red guy.
Lily giggled with delight that Santa surprised her with her wish of a Hello Kitty pillow!

Brennan was super excited about his long awaited GeoTrax airport to add to his ever expanding train tracks.

The fun continued later at Uncle Bryce & Aunt Kristie's beautiful house, where we got to be with Gramps and Nana too....and more presents!


The highlight of the day, was jumping for joy on their cousins' new trampoline!



Mommy got in on the fun, thanks to my crazy brother, literally dragging me out there. And believe it or not, I even did a front flip! It jerked my body around like a ragdoll, but it was so much fun. :)

I'm sure that after all these years this was a much awaited FAMILY celebration! While they can drive us nuts, there is no better place to spend the holidays!
