Christmas Fun

I have to admit that we didn't take many pictures this Christmas, as Allyn was working the video camera most of the time instead. I told my sister that this year signified what I had always imagined and hoped Christmas would be like when I was a mother. The girls had such excitement about every aspect of Christmas. We were at home Christmas Eve, and they kept running to the front door yelling "Santa, don't come yet!" as we were still "preparing" the snacks for Santa and the reindeer. I have never seen them jump into bed as quickly and quietly as they did that night since they knew Santa wouldn't come until they were asleep. Christmas Day was fantastic watching them open their gifts, snuggling in our PJs to watch the Disney Christmas parade, and then having a big breakfast. (I think we were ALL in pajamas until well after lunch). Here are a few pictures from our Christmas celebration with Allyn's family when the girls were closing their eyes, awaiting the unveiling of their new doll house:)
