Best Christmas ever...

...we had such a wonderful Christmas. For the first time in like 25 years, our entire family was able to spend the holiday together. It has been so great to hang out with my parents, siblings and their families the past few days. Emma has had so much fun playing with her cousins.

We were blessed in the gift department as well...I finally got a Kindle (yea!) and Emma got a Wii, a camera and a scooter, among other things. But I think her favorite gift was the Pillow Pet she got from her grandma and grandpa...she has barely put "Bubbles the Hippo" down since she unwrapped him!


Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday as well!

So, what Wii games did you get? So far, our fav is MarioKart and the sword battles on Resort.

Donna, a bunch of people I know got Wii's, my girls got three new games for ours and they've been on it non-stop. How do you like your kindle? I'm having a hard time with the thought of giving up the idea of a an old fashioned book. :-)

She is adorable! What a cute hippo! She sounds so much like Hadleigh. She loves stuffed animals and is perfectly happy playing with them. I bet she loves the Wii! How fun! I'm glad you had a Merry Christmas and I hope you have a Happy New Year too! :)
