HOPE EVERYONE HAD A BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY!!!

CHRISTAMS EVE, MY FAMILY CAME OVER TO DO OUR 'ADULT' GIFT EXCHANGE AND FOR THE KIDDIES TO OPEN THEIR GIFTS FROM MY FAMILY...

I MADE A BIG HAM AND WE MADE SANDWICHES AND BAGELS AND STUFF. WE HAD A REALLY GOOD TIME PASSING OUT GIFTS AND STUFF. AND MY SIS WERE PLAYING AROUND WITH BECCA, TELLIN' HER SHE WAS A 'SKINNY MINI'....

......HERE ARE THEIR PICS PLAYING AROUND.......

BECCA GOT A WHOLE BUNCH OF 'ELVIS' STUFF (SHE COLLECTS THAT KINDA THING) AND THE KIDS LOVED EVERYTHING THEY GOT FROM THE FAM. MY NEPHEW, CHRIS ADORED THE THOMAS THE TRAIN TENT E AND I GOT HIM AND HE WANTED TO OPEN EVERYTHING HE GOT RIGHT AWAY! MY MOM LOVED HER PERFUME, 'AS USUAL' AND AFTER EVERYONE LEFT, THE KIDDIES WENT TO BED AND E AND I MET WITH SANTAS TO PREPARE STOCKINGS AND SANTA GIFTS.

K ACTUALLY SLEPT IN HER BED UNITL ABOUT 7AM....SINCE VANESSA WAS AT HER DADS THIS CHRISTMAS, SHE HAD MINOR INTERUPTIONS.....
