Christmas Morning

The anticipation of Christmas morning for our two little boys is what it is all about!
The boys enjoyed the moment, shared in the giving, and were delighted with the surprises Santa brought for them!
Together we shared a wonderful Christmas together!

Christmas Favourites

This year the boys had requested only one thing from Santa! Owen had really wanted a stuffed puppy dog (that ebay didn't deliver .. shame on that ebay seller!) and Griffy wanted a guitar.

Owen was delighted with his new blue beta fish named bluey .... a great substitute for the puppy
and Griffy was jumping for joy with his new guitar!

and anything with Diego on it!

Besides the death of my mother's cat on Christmas morning, we had a lovely day!

Dear Santa,

I know you are probably really busy, and don`t have a lot of extra time to read blogs, but if you happen to read this one (and who doesn`t... HA!) then maybe, just maybe you will treat me with a little something special that I have had my eye on for a long time.

This may seem a little early, but this may take a little bit of time to arrive. The picture above is an example of just one of many to choose from.

Thanks Santa!

Holidays

The holidays are almost over. But somehow I feel like I need one more week just to rest from my holiday break....darn teachers!
















We had a great Christmas! We were all spoiled. This year was especially fun for Owen. He was excited, anxious and ready for Santa to arrive on Christmas Eve. He had learned how to sing Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, and Santa Claus is coming to Town. He was thrilled to make reindeer food to leave Rudolph, and excited to find that Rudolph left a present waiting for him in his room. He even remembered to bake some cookies for Santa and leave out a plate for him.













The morning of, he could hardly wait to run down stairs and open presents.















So much so that he just kept opening everyone's gifts. Griffy was thankful. He wasn't into unwrapping the presents. The long wait was over, he had tried to behave the best he could for the past month, hoping that baby elephant would arrive.....and he did! Owen is already counting down the days until Santa arrives again....but makes the point that Halloween is first and then Santa can come.
