Many Christmases

We had several Christmases with family this year. It was so nice because the kids got to relax and enjoy their toys in between and they really enjoyed opening their gifts and didn't get warn out from opening like they have in years past.

First, we went to New Jersey on the 19th and had Christmas with my family on Saturday the 20th. We got to exchange gifts with the Reif kiddos, Ben and Aiden, and got some fun stuff from Grammy, Mom-mom, and Pop-pop (including a new Wii). Then, we went to Gran Irvin's for some fun presents over there and decorated their tree. It was such a nice relaxing day. We had such a fun time and were able to just sit back and enjoy the day.

We went to church on Christmas Eve and came back to our house with the Carter family to exchange gifts with them. Joe gave me my gift early...a new digital camera, a real one, not a point and shoot. I was so excited!! I used it all night and the next day. I think I took over 200 pictures.

Joe got a customized Phillies Jersey
