Our Christmas week started out with baking cookies. The kids and I have 3 weeks off from school right now and we wanted to do something fun. They also found a lot of time to go play in the snow. Ryan was lucky because we had a snowstorm warning on Christmas Eve, so to make life easier for everyone his manager said he could work from home that day. My mom did come for dinner in between bands of snow on Christmas Eve, but otherwise it was a pretty quiet night.
The kids got up really early on Christmas morning (of course) to run downstairs to see what Santa brought. They got movies, books and the boys got new sleds. Shella May got a towel that looks like a duck.
Shella May wears her duck towel every day, all day! She keeps asking me if it is dirty, so I finally said please put it in the laundry.
We got a fun family game from our friends. The kids dove right in and started playing of course. Ryan even got into one game, but I saved you from any pictures of that:)
Shella May got a new running suit. She loves wearing running pants more than anything else, although jeans take a close second. The pants are way too big, so she tucks in the shirt and the jacket. She needs to eat more so her waist can catch up with her height.
Merry Christmas to all our friends and family near and far. We thank you for all the Christmas cards, gifts and well wishes. We are really looking forward to 2010.

It looks like you guys had a great Christmas and that Shella May enjoyed her first Christmas home. I love twister and the kids look like they are having a blast playing it. Enjoy the rest of your Christmas break! Do you have any plans for New Year's Eve?
Enjoy your 3 weeks off...it will fly by! We only have 1 week left before we start school again. Time flies when you're having fun! :-)
I have been wanting to tell you ... I just loved your Christmas card. It was perfect!
Merry Christmas! It sounds like you had a blessed Christmas! Best wishes for a wonderful 2010!
