christmas was good to us...

On Christmas Eve, we enjoyed a nice, quiet, candlelit dinner consisting of chicken cordon bleu, mashed potatoes, asparagus, muffins and martinelli's. As you can see, Leah enjoyed it...not so much.

Christmas morning brought a special present for Ryan: RAIN...and it lasted for a few days. Yay! Made it feel a little more like the holidays. Leah loved unwrapping presents this year...and then playing in the paper. And she seriously would not take off her new hat all morning. She threw tantrums if it fell off.
In addition to these lovely matching sweat suits, we were also blessed with an iPod (Ryan), servingware and a garmin running watch (maren), an alphabet phonics fridge game (leah) and a squeezebox (from Scott and fam). Plus lots of other very fun and very thoughtful gifts. Thanks to EVERYONE! We spent the afternoon/evening with the lovely Smiths. Ate more yummy food and had a great time.

Love the matching sweat suits! I love that Leah loves to wear hats. That is not such an easy thing for other almost 2 year olds! Your Christmas Eve dinner sounded very yummy. I'm impressed!
