What a Christmas


Christmas only gets more fun as the children get older! I knew it was a success when Cariña said "This was the best Christmas ever! I loved everything I got." Phew, I thought long and hard for each gift. I was not willing to spend money on gifts that wouldn't get played with. Also I was able to complete their pjs before Christmas eve. They turned out cute. Cariña loved her nightgown.

Here is the kids opening up the Christmas eve pajamas. They were cute.

Here is Cariña with her polly pocket mega set. This was a great gift. She has played with it consistently for the past week. In the picture below she loaded her polly pocket crew on her cousin's mega truck.



This is one of Helaman's favorite gift. The BYU glow in the dark ball. Balls are always great gifts. The only problem is making sure the kids don't fight over the ball.




I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Mom and Dad have such a great corner for the Christmas tree. The kids look so cute. Matthew has grown up a lot since this summer. Good job on Carina's pjs, they are super cute. But after you told me they were see through I kept imagining her as Phyllis in The Private Eyes!

Merry Christmas! What cute pajamas for the kids. (I have not attempted to so anything for Afton.) We'll have to get together sometime -- I'm done with paid employment :).

I'm sorry, I forgot to take the legs, I mean notes.

The house is certainly lonely with out you guys. I miss stepping on the polly pocket pieces!

oh Polly Pockets... so fun for the kids, but I swear my kids have swallowed shoes. Do pieces have to be that small?

Merry Christmas. Hope our paths cross again in 2010!

Nice job on the Christmas pj's! I don't sew, so I love seeing people who do.

I love the ginormous Polly Pocket set!
