A few favorite Christmas memories

C and R happily left their favorite cookies for Santa and some carrots for the reindeer.


They also enjoyed spreading reindeer food (oats and colored sugar) on the lawn just to make sure the reindeer knew to stop here.


I love shopping for a Christmas dress for R. This year, her dress is from Gymboree and I love it. She looks so pretty in this simple, yet classic dress.

Here is C with one of his favorite presents, the Transformers Devastator.


He was also very happy to receive some King Kong toys. He is currently obsessed with King Kong and Godzilla.

The playmobil pyramid was a big hit too. It looks great assembled, and has some very cool features.

Here is R with her favorite present. C was very happy for her because we told her there was no way that she would get this gift.


The Itty Bitty twins (now known as Baby C and Baby R) from American Girl are receiving lots of love. The double stroller makes them even more special.



T is now all decked out in Steelers attire. Even his room is sporting a new Steelers fathead.


We had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends. Obviously, Christmas is not about the presents, but I love to remember which gifts were loved most by my children each year. Their excitement provides great memories.

This is a very cool car for R - she must be very excited! It's great that your children could get what they really wished for.

Love the one of C throwing out the reindeer food.

I bet Reagan is loving her Jeep, and that is the coolest pyramid.

I almost got Joe that same Christmas outfit for church in the boys' style from Gymboree!

I would love to see T's fathead.

I love the idea of leaving a carrot for the reindeer.
My kids wanted the pyramid too, but we opted to get a smaller Egyptian set. Maybe later.
Glad you had a great Christmas.

Looks like you had a great Christmas! I haven't had a chance to write a Christmas post yet, but my C also got Devastator!
