Christmas 2008

We had a unbelievably BUSY Christmas but even through all the running around Savannah was a trooper.  We began Christmas Eve by making cookies for Santa.  Savannah loved helping.  We then went to Decatur to my aunt and uncle's to have Christmas with my mom's family.  Savannah got lots of new books which she loves.

Christmas morning was a blast.  Savannah woke to find that Santa had eaten almost all the cookies she left him and drank all his chocolate milk.  She decided to help Santa finish eating the cookies.  The first gift she saw from Santa was a roller coaster.  This was a hit!  Santa could have just brought that and nothing else because we had a really hard time prying her away from it. We spent the rest of the morning opening presents and playing with all of Savannah's new toys.  It was a fun morning!  Next year will definitely be fun and interesting with a 3 year old and a 7 month old.

Christmas night we went to my brother's house to eat dinner and open gifts with he and his girlfriend and my mom.  And of course, Savannah got more toys.  She was so excited.  Elmo Live was the big thing but she is still not real sure about him.

Lastly, we spent Friday with Brian's dad and some of his cousins and Saturday with my dad.  And yes, she got MORE toys!  Where are we supposed to put all this stuff.?

All in all, we had a good Christmas spending time with family and friends.  We are truly blessed and above all thankful for the reason for the season.  Happy Birthday, Jesus!  We love You!
