Christmas Day at the Smiley's...

Kayla and Claudia watching a DVD
and singing along. Claudia is the
sweetest thing. She put her arm
around Kayla and was ready to share
her DVD player so they could both
watch!

Later in the afternoon we opened
gifts. Grandma is opening a gift
from her "favorite grandson" and
I'm pretty sure she didn't know who
that was! Kidding Ryan!

And then we had a visit from Santa
himself. Christian and Sarah put
Ryan up to this and Claudia was the
only kids that absolutely did NOT
like Santa. I was laughing so hard but
it was a lot of fun! HO ho ho!

Santa handed out present to all
the kids and then headed off to the
next house!

Freya and Max opening gifts... Christmas
Day as I know it is spent at Grandpa and
Grandma Smiley's. I remember as a kid
getting our sock out for Santa and then
opening our stocking gifts in the morning.
There would always be walnuts in our socks
and I don't ever remember eating them.

Looky what Santa brought my cousin
David!

Me with Grandma and Grandpa Smiley!
We will finish Christmas with my family
on Saturday and I am looking forward to
that!

One last pict...my brother Ryan
and I! We always have fun together!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!

It was good to see you guys yesterday! It's so weird that all of us are "grown up."
I read through some of your last posts, but I'll have to read more later when I have more time. I'm going to add this to Google Reader so I'll know when you write new posts and I'm going to send your blog address to Kristen. She'll enjoy keeping up with your life too. She will enjoy reading about your love for and times you can be with Joshua and Kayla. She is the exact same way with my Kayla and now with Krista too.
