Christmas Eve Eve 2008


Christmas Morning ... not a creature was stirring ... but not for long!

Reindeer helper, Amanda

Xyla wrapped and ready

Nick and his dolly, Molly

Smiley Amylooking so pretty tonight

And Harmony poses for the camera as usual

Amy and Xyla were so excited about the Elmo book

Who do you think looks more excited?

Opa and Harmony opening an original box of Tinker Toys. Harmony said, "Oh we have these at school!"


Nick telling Joanna to, "Shsssh!"

After she said a bad word of excitement when getting a gift card to Ingles.

Amanda and Harmony waiting for the Penguin to poop. Definitely a highlight of the night, the penguin kept Harmony giggling the rest of the night!

Zack getting ready to open his gift from Joanna & Ethan

All the boys, including Opa, got cap guns! They were LOUD!

Mommy gets a hold of Xyla's ticklish spot and entertained us all with baby laugh!

Amanda's gift from Atley - the ENTIRE Lucy collection on DVD!

More Elmo Book - Xyla studies the books so much it's like she can already read.

Harmony gives Amanda a big thank you hug for the cool princess bank. It makes a magical sound every time you put money in it. It's a much sweeter sound than the one my debit card makes every time I use it :)


My youngest elf, Matthew, always looks good in a hat!

Amy got Zack's name and this WOW game. I hope Zack understands this game more than his face suggests!

Atley drew Nick's name and got him a really funny Gangster shirt at Spencer's

Nick got Matt's name and gave him movies

Zack got Amy's name and got her a Wii game party game (the same one I got her!) Not sure who looks sillier in this photo, Amy with her tag on her head or Nick with the weird face!

Matt got Amanda an 8 GB Flash Drive - college is only 2 weeks and 3 days away.

Amanda got Atley and she gave him a model car to which he responded, "Just add water?" Too bad that's not how it works or we would all be growing model cars!

I hate pictures of myself but Amy took this and it's only fair that everyone who was at the party is shown in at least one photo, right? Here I am happy as can be after opening a really cool LIFE Picture book from Atley.

I don't care what you all think, you're all winners in my book (even with the big "Loser" symbol over your heads!)

I Love Lucy's biggest fan with her boyfriend and his biggest fan! (haha!)
