Christmas Review

We had a great Christmas. I hope you did, too. We did our usual thing of getting together on Christmas Eve with my family. We had dinner, opened presents and went to church. You should have seen the look on Savannah's face when she opened up the Hannah Montana guitar from grandma and papa. It was a warm evening. I had on short sleeves and didn't have a coat on all night.
The next morning, Savannah slept in until 8:30 when we finally decided to wake her up! Santa still doesn't hold a whole lot of excitement for this 3-year old. We enjoyed french toast for breakfast and then opened gifts. Savannah was excited, however, about 2 bath toys so she wanted to take a bath. She didn't even want to finish opening the rest of her gifts. Oh well. Other favorite gifts include the Hello Kitty umbrella and Hannah Montana watch.
We enjoyed the huge lunch spread at my grandma's. We also do a gift exchange there. I came away with a travel case and Steve got a weed-eater.
It took us a few days to recover from all of it, but that's part of the fun, right? Here's wishing you a Happy New Year in 2009!

Recovering from Christmas can be harsh :-)

I remember the days when we were more excited to wake up and open presents then our kids. Then the first thing they opened was their sole focus of attention and we had to pry them away to open more. Enjoy it now. They'll soon be tearing through everything in no time flat.

Happy New Year!
