Merry Christmas!
Posted by John under: Christmas 2007 .
We hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas. For us it has been one of the most relaxing Christmas’ ever; we stayed home all day! In the morning we opened gifts and Olivia had a blast! We had Elizabeth’s Dad, Stepmother, and Grandmother over for lunch. That was it for our Christmas day.
We went outside so that I could try out my new mountain bike and we spent some time talking with our friends John and Ellen from across the street. The kids played outside and then ended up at our house to finish playing as it was getting a bit cold.
We think that Olivia had a great Christmas. Santa brought her two American Girl dolls, a huge horse for her dolls, an MP3 player, a book on Ancient Egypt (Yes, that’s right. She saw the book in Barnes and Noble and had asked for it.), some Hannah Montana stuff, some clothes, a Barbie guitar, and a couple of games and some small stuff. Elizabeth got a compact that she asked for and a digital picture key chain. The key chain is pretty cool, it will hold up to 60 pictures. I got some socks (hey I asked for them!), a Columbia vest, and a mountain bike. I was really surprised about the mountain bike!
Here are some pictures from Christmas Eve at Elizabeth’s Mom’s house and at our house on Christmas Day.
