Christmas Day!!!

Christmas is one of my favorite days of the year! I get so excited the night before like Im still a little kid but now that Im older Im most excited for the gifts I give everyone! Every year I make something homemade for everyone and it is so fun for me to come up with a really great homemade gift! We make Christmas last all day long...so this year we woke up and went out to Mandi's for breakfast and to watch the kids open their presents then ran around the rest of the day to see everyone then came home for dinner and the present finale! This year we waited all day to open the biggest and the best presents and it was such a great day! We are so lucky to be fortunate enough to always have a great Christmas! This time of year makes me so grateful for my family and friends and all the people I love! 

 Mayci's favorite present of the morning was this little walking dog! She opened it, named it Tootsie and went right outside in the freezing cold to walk it!

 Two weeks before Christmas my mom and I went shopping at Hip and Humble on 9th and 9th and fell in love with these signs! We left and went to lunch and then both went back and got these for each other without knowing! 

 For a few months now Ive been dying for a bread maker and to my surprise Patty got me one for Christmas and I LOVE it! Im so excited to make yummy homemade bread! 

 Mayci loving on Poppa after opening a HUGE doll house! I didnt get a good picture of it but its awesome! 

 Jayden and Mandi

 Jayden got this basketball stand and was so excited...we had to show him once what to do and then he played with it forever and thought it was the coolest thing that he could get the ball into the hoop! 

 Nonna got Mayci and I this awesome pop up Anatomy book to read together! 

 My dad waited all day to give me this fishing pole....for a while now Ive been talking about going fishing for Tiger Muskie at Pineview but dont have a pole so now I do and now I cant wait to go catch a big one! 

 I finally got my own Balakalava for snowshoeing and fun winter sports so my face stays warm!  

 This was my best homemade gift of the year...I made my mom a hardbound digital scrapbook of our family throughout the year 2009 and it turned out awesome! In her left hand is a new Ipad...my dad spoiled her rotten! 

J man was so wild Christmas night...he put this hat on an was having such a blast playing around in it! Christmas was so much fun this year! I cant wait until next year!
