Merry Christmas!

Christmas 2010

Wow! How a year really changes things. Last year Payton asked Santa for fruit snacks. This year the list was long from both girls and included dress up clothes, Barbie cars, Barbie dream house, jewlery and dolls. Our basement is now primary occupied by Barbie's real estate. We really enjoyed time with both families and friends.

Santa, Trains and Alligators

Walking through the mall without a stroller, sitting on Santa's lap (or Mommy's) and talking to him without tears, riding a train without Mom and Dad squeezing next to them...my girls are growing up!!! Payton told Santa she wanted roller skates and gave him a high five. Aly just said, "Me too!" then asked for her coloring book. They rode the train twice and had to go up and down the "alligator" (escalator) several times.

Payton's Preschool Christmas Program

Hair curled, nails painted, Christmas dress on...Payton was in heaven! She sang over 10 songs during her Christmas program and handed us a homemade present when it was over. It's great to see her so excited to show off her friends and all she is learning.
