Christmas 2009!

After we opened presents at our house we went over to my parents to spend the rest of Christmas with them, my Aunt and Uncle and cousins. Look at this crazy amount of presents!


Dad, Robert and Chris~

Me~

Jim and Marge~

Time to start unwrapping!

A Dora suitcase to pack her stuff in when she stays over at her Grandparents! She decided to try it out!

Not sure if you can tell in this picture, but Robert really likes these gloves and tried to put them in his present pile.

But later he got some too!

More and more presents~

Elena really liked her new vacuum cleaner!

My mom works in construction and had recently listened to a speaker who talked about how early we start stereotyping our children by the gifts that we give them. She had already purchased a shopping cart and vacuum for Elena and she decided that Elena needed something that wasn't as girlie.

So she got Elena a dump truck! And Elena LOVED it!! :)

Then it was time to eat!

Now of course we need dessert!

Not the prettiest sugar cookies ever but they were yummy!

Time for some family photos~

A group shot with the self-timer~not too bad!

At the end of the night we bundled up and headed home.

But first we made a stop through the Lights at St. Paul, which are right around the corner from my parents house. They were so neat and we are going to start doing it every Christmas night!

We had a wonderful Christmas! I hope that you and your families did too! Merry Christmas!
