Christmas 2010

WOW what a wonderful Christmas day we had!

The morning started off perfect and Kaylee was beyond cute and had a blast! She woke about 7:30a and the day started!
First she checked out to make sure Santa ate her cookies and had his milk, then she had to check out what the big present for her was..she said "wheels" as she looked under the wrapping paper and then ripped into it...A new 4 wheeler and this one goes 5mph..hehehe Then one by one she got them all opened and woohoo she was pretty excited about all of them! I think her favorites though were: the doctors kit and this strange looking play snake! After presents she wanted to get dressed a ride her quad a little so out she went for a whole 10min! hahaha

Next was Christmas morning breakfast! This tradition started in 2007, after our first Christmas with a child and the chaos of the day we thought hey we'll do breakfast and the family can come over for gifts...best idea EVER! HEHEHE
Jason and I cooked B&G,bacon,sausage,scrambled eggs,cinnamon rolls and orange juice! This was my first time making sausage gravy and then making for 10 people and I'll be darn it was FANTASTIC During cooking Kaylee got to open presents from Ceca and all the grandparents! After all that fun Kaylee took a nap for a couple hours, she was a tired gal!

Then came Nana & Pawpaw's dinner...yummm Its great getting together with everyone and just chatting and laughing!
And last but not least we headed over to Grandpa Spurrier's. This year was really neat because Kegan was able to come for the first time! So grandpa and great grandpa got the presence of the granddaughter duo on Christmas! How fun that was and it was really awesome to spend it with everyone! Kaylee and Kegan totally LOVE each other and had a blast running through the house.

Christmas Eve cookies!

Tonight we made our cookies...yummy! And rice crispy treats!
I planned on making different shape cookies but the dough didn't want to cooperate with me so we axed that idea and just decorated round cookies! hehehe However I did manage to make my own icing this year, it was good and its actually for cookies so it dried and didn't come off to the touch...wooohooo!

Last trip to Santa!

Here's our last trip to Santa's! Kaylee was a little more hesitate this time so I had to go with her at first but it only took a few seconds for that smile to pop up and her be fine!






During our 45min wait outside in the cold, Jason and her stayed warm by having a snowball fight and running around the court house...she had a blast!
Still had to believe its been 4yrs since our first visit with Santa....Kaylee was 2months old and tiny.....funny thing this year it was the same Santa as 2006.

T'was the Night Before Christmas

T'was the night before Christmas, when all through the house
The only creatures stirring was mommy and daddy, and the cat
The stockings were hung on the bookcase with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
Kaylee is nestled all snug in her bed,
...While visions of sugar-plums dances in her head


And before she was all snuggled in bed..a treat for Santa handled with care!
