Christmas

My goal was to update our site before Christmas and well it just didn't happen so here I am now. Christmas has come and gone and we are trying to keep our house in order as we find places for all the new toys. It was fun to be gone for a few days during the holidays but I do have to admit it is always nice to come home again. Jennifer absolutely loved Christmas this year. She was a little disappointed that all the presents were not for her. It was very sweet because she was truly excited about everything she opened, she would say "oh" as opened each present, very funny. Bill and I often talk about that we love how she truly enjoys the little things. We could have wrapped up toys that she already has and she would not have cared. The girl has a lot to teach us about being content with what we have. We took a lot of pictures of all of our Christmas' so I will just share a few today, maybe in a few days I will share some more, there are a lot of good ones or so I think. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a Happy New Year!We let Jennifer open her presents from us before we left Tuesday night. We didn't get her much but she loved each thing she opened. She got lots of books from us, which she really loved.Christmas morning we tried very hard to get Jennifer to take a "cute" picture in front of the tree at my mom and dad's. She was having a snack and didn't really want to have her picture taken, this was about as good as it got.A new coat from Grammie, how cute! Grammie got Jen lots of new, cute clothes!
The present was really for Ben and Connor but Jennifer of course had to be in on the action. Like I said before she thought every present should be for her.A new bike! Isn't this the cutest little bike you have ever seen? Jennifer is so short so even a regular size trike is too big, this bike is just her size. She was very excited to see papa bring it up stairs for her.This present is twice as big as Jennifer! She got a basketball hoop! I know you may be thinking a basketball hoop for a girl but she loves it! She will get her stool out and put it front the hoop and just stand there and shoot away. Bill has also been practicing up, he thinks he is pretty good but let's be honest it is kid sized!
