Sharing Christmas Memories ...

We had a such a wonderful Christmas this year. No pressures. We stayed around the house and just enjoyed each otherw company. We had a fabulous brunch and then a wonderful dinner together ... just the three of us. Most of the day was spent playing with Griffin and watching movies. We watched four movies ... Beetlejuice, Talledega Nights, Polar Express, and Jingle All The Way.

Simple. Sweet. Fulfilling.

Here's a few photos from our day ...


Christmas morning begins with a climb down the stairs


Griffin gets his first glimpse at all of the presents under the tree ... Santa messed up and accidentally wrapped all the gifts this year. He will remember to do it the right way next year and just lay them out under the tree


Choooo .... Choooo .... it's Thomas The Train!


Oh my goodness ... what could that be????
It's Elmo!
(Click on this photo for a bigger few ... G's face is priceless!)


Looky ... Looky ... all kinds of Elmo books, a bag and crayons!


Daddy and Griffin putting together the Sesame Street Tool Bench ... which he loves and I highly recommend it!


Griffin is a boy in motion and I rarely get a face shot of him anymore ... most pictures these days are the side or back of his head. Finally ... a full on face shot.

Missy- your little boy is so cute! I have 5 "nephews" (they are my cousins' boys- jamie has Tanner and Haiden who are 4 and 18 mos & Michelle has Will & Wes&Matt. Will is 4 and wes & matt are 3 yr. old twins). They all make the funniest facest and bring me smiles! Thanks for sharing Griffin's happy Christmas!
