Our Christmas

Christmas came a little early for me! (Well, just by one day.) Scott surprised me on Christmas Eve with tickets to the matinee showing of Legally Blonde The Musical at the Kennedy Center.
What a fun start to a couple of GREAT days! I've got to give it to him, since we've been married his gift-giving has definitely gotten better and better by the year!! ;) Thanks babe, for such a thoughtful and fun gift.

After the show we came home and had a really nice relaxing evening with just our little family. It was wonderful! We snacked on shrimp cocktail, cheese, pizza pockets, and some other fun snacky stuff. We capped the evening off by watching Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (The old school animated one of course!) and then settled in for a nice winters sleep!

Here is a 'before' picture of the tree and Santa's surprises... (Oh shoot, your just going to have to use your imagination, I forgot to rotate the picture before downloading it!!)

...And here is Kyle with all his loot!He was THRILLED with all his fun things on Christmas morning. A big thank you to Grandma and Grandpa Walters for the awesome trampoline and books. Grandma and Grandpa Pugmire for the Kitty Webkin. Uncle Eric and Family for the AWESOME zoomer toy and movie. Uncle Tom and Aunt Jill for the Moon Sand. And Santa for the bicycle and Elefun game.

Whew! One spoiled kid. Thankfully he's just spoiled, and not a brat! (I guess that is just my humble opinion!)

It was so much fun to watch Kyle open his gifts. He's finally starting to 'get it' this year. He was so happy and excited, yet very gracious thanking everyone after each gift (even though they weren't here to hear it!)

Last but certainly not least, our traditional family picture in front of the tree...
Oh, and this last picture is for Grandma and Grandpa...Kyle obviously LOVES his new tramp.

Sounds like a cool Christmas to me. Ours was similar. We went to the movie (Tale of Despereaux) then pigged out of our favorite foods.
