Christmas~ what a great christmas we had this year. We were all so spoiled! The kiddos were at perfect ages, and loved every minute of all the celebration. Christmas is such a magical time for kids. and it is so much fun to see it through their eyes! My favorite part of christmas is all the fun traditions--I always have the annual Christmas eve run with the running group, followed by a fab breakfast. Then Christmas eve dinner at my mom's house, and late night hot chocolate with my brother and sisters--where we talk and laugh! My dad gave us a really special gift on Christmas eve this year. He took all of our old family home videos, and got them made into DvD's for us. It was so fun to watch them again, we laughed until we cried--especially me and my dancing~trust me..it's ugly! Then we all come to my Mom's house Christmas morning and open all the presents; followed by a delic breakfast of crepes. I love this time of year!

Your kids are so cute in their pj's. Looks like they got a lot of great gifts. I would have killed for a dollhouse like that as a kid. So fun!
