Merry Christmas!

Christmas is such a magical time of year.  Yes, it is busy in our home (not just with Christmas but the birthdays the week before and week after!)  We really enjoy all the celebration. 
Christmas Morning!

The kids were so excited to open presents.  It was hard to get pictures of them all.  I was the mean mom and made them open one present at a time.  I just couldn't miss out of their excited faces.
And EXCITED faces they had.  This is what makes Christmas so magical!
Look at the excitement and magic in their eyes!
This year we kept asking the kids what they wanted.  The lists when on and on.  Esp. for Keegan who wanted everything he saw on TV. 
Kallie asked for her "Fur-Real Puppy" and of course at the very last minute told Santa she wanted an American Doll.  Well Santa answered her call (kinda) and got her the doll.  Her name is even Callie!
The only thing that stayed consistent on Keegans wish list was a Batman and Spiderman Wii game.
Among the Stinky the Garbage Truck and BigFoot.

All Shantel wanted and asked and asked for was a DS.  Can you guess by her face, what she was opening?


Lemieux was even a good dog and got a present from the big guy.  He couldn't wait to sink his teeth into his new toys!
The girls played their DS's all day and into the night.  Do you think they even knew I was there?
Oh yeah, a quick look up for a pictures.

It was the first Christmas I have had totally OFF without worrying I might have to work since I started in the health care field.  It was so nice to be able to enjoy my family not in Zombie mode! 


And what is Christmas without a quick family photo!
Yes, all 6 of us!


And we can't end it all without a picture of the aftermath!
Here is what the house looked like the morning after Christmas....
This is after 4 bags of trash has been taken out and another 3 are not visible!
