We had a great Christmas this year. Our kids really enjoyed all aspects of the holiday this year. Scott and Annabelle enjoyed not only the decorating, baking, shopping for gifts, gathering with relatives (We missed you Ericksons!) but the gift giving this year. Yes, receiving items they wished for was great too, but they both had stated before Christmas that they had already gotten what they wanted this year, and that was Mojo. They only wanted a puppy and that's what they already had gotten. Aren't they sweet??
Mark and I are proud of both our kids. Despite there size, we have to remember they are only 9 and 11. They act pretty mature for there ages and they make us smile each and every day, even if that smile is really to hold our tongues!!
With all this said, the kids did get some pretty impressive gifts this year. Santa brought Annabelle a new bike! She thought for sure is was for Scott because it was so cool and because the rain melted all the snow, she has been actually able to ride it!!!
Scott got a Lego battery powered AT-AT (Star Wars). He built it in a day!
He was so excited he was able to do it on his own because the box says 14+. Mark and I had good Christmas' too. Mark got a Cry Baby!!! No, not me, it's a peddle that distorts the sounds on ones guitar. I got the biggest surprise. I got the IPHONE!!!!!!!! I was told no way and I was snookered into believing it was true. I'm so happy with it!!! I love technology - Oh, and Mark too!!!
