Christmas Day

Everyone has been asking how Christmas Day went. It was great!! We had told her the night before that Santa was coming that night. Cody was the first to wake, I heard him a 7:20, and we had told him that he had to wait until 7:30 to wake us up, and he did. All the kids loved all their presents. We cut back some this year. With Anastasia only being able to take back so much, we didn't want our boys to get more than she did. I'm glad we did, because much more and she would have been overwhelmed.
Her favorite present of all was the one that Cody bought her from his school Christmas Shop, I had given him 20.00 to shop for the family, and he did a great job. He bought Anastasia a pink heart necklace, it came in this adorable little box, she adores it. Puts it on first thing every morning. That and the 2 bracelets that came with the Hanna Montana shirts Papaw and Memaw sent her.
She loved the pink Hello Kitty backpack that we got her to take back with her on the plane. Of course it has pink sequins on it.
The boys favorite gifts were their "make your own lightsabers" from Papaw and Memaw. And of course Cooper adores his Batman Lego for Wii. That and the lightsaber were the only 2 things he asked for.
After opening presents we did our tradition of Cinnamon rolls. We just lazed around and let the kids play with their toys. Gary introduced Anastasia to the Wii. She loves the Nerf shooting game.
I made a turkey and our friends Amanda and Greg came over for dinner with their baby Ava. She tried everything on her plate. She did not like the Sweet Potatoes or the pumpkin pie.
Daddy got the new Star Wars game for Wii, and Mama got a new wireless keyboard and mouse, which I love!!! Daddy said my other keyboard was too loud, it would keep him up when I was on the computer at night and he was trying to sleep.
I think her first experience with Santa was magical. Although it is sad to me that it was probably the first.
