Christmas Day 2009

Christmas morning is always one of my fondest moments of the whole year and this year was no different. Daley woke up about 5am (which is really odd for her) and after arguing with her father that NO WAY were we getting up that early. She laid in bed with us and finally fell back asleep. Jabin got up at 6:30am and started a fire, made coffee and turned on the Christmas music. Finally about 7am we decided to wake Daley up from her slumber. We were kissing her sweet face telling her to get up. Jabin said "Beansie (thats her nickname) you need to get up and see what Santa brought you" She barely opened her eyes and her sweet little voice she said "Presents???" I said "Yea baby Santa brought you presents" She said "For Day-Day???(that is what she calls herself). It was sooooo sweet. She popped right up after that and took off into the living room. She saw her "Big Chair" and was so excited! Here are a few pics.

Sooooo Sleepy

Look at all these toys!!!!!

After Jabin, Daley and I did our family Christmas we got ready for Christmas breakfast. Everyone comes to our house for Jabins famous crepes. Our PLAN was to have breakfast at 9:30.....well Mother Nature had a different plan!!! Jabin had to go pick up my mom and Bubba. Then on their way home they stopped to help a lady who was stranded and Jabin fell on the ice and busted his hand open. Then after he got home and cleaned himself up he and Bubba went an picked up my grandparents. By the time we started eating it was closer to 11am and turned into Christmas Brunch. It was oh soooooo yummy though. Finally Kelli, Eric & Atlee made it to town in time to scarf down some food and open gifts. After all that we were really really tired. Everyone left about 1:30 and at 2:00 we laid down for a nap. Christmas night plans got changed a bit but we decided to get together anyways. We went to mom and Bubbas (after we picked up Amanda and Angela) and played Dominos. It was fun but a busy busy busy few days!!!
