Well... we did it! We survived Christmas! We had a very low key day. We woke up and opened presents then had our Christmas breakfast (omlets and potato casserole - my dad's tradition). Then Jason went to work and the kids & I hung out and watched a movie. When Jason got home we hung out some more. I made chicken noodle soup for dinner (my grandma's tradition) and took some over to Jason's mom's house and then came back and ate and hung out some more. It was a PERFECT day!
The kids all dressed in their Christmas pajamas
Christmas morning - all ready to come down the stairs
It looked like a tornado has ripped through our house with all the wrapping paper everywhere. I tried to be more organized like my mom always was. (she always had a garbage bag ready and a bag for the bows and a place for the boxes to be saved for the next year). But... it didn't happen. I was able to get a garbage bag, but it wasn't really used until everything was opened.
Malia got a new baby from Ammon for Christmas. She screamed until it was finally free from the box. She loves her new baby and gives it loves constantly. Thanks Ammon!
Santa brought Taliana & Ammon ipod shuffles. They were SO excited to finally have their OWN music to listen to. Unfortunately.... Ammon's ipod was washed in the washer with his jeans a few days later. However... he didn't seem to mind. Maybe Santa should have thought of something different for him. hmmmm.
The kids always love spending time with Grandma Kaufusi. They begged all day long to go to her house so they could tell her all about Christmas. But they were able to talk to her throughout the day on the phone, so that was good.

I loved reading about Malia screaming until that doll was completely out of the package. They make it pretty hard to get them out also!
One year Joe and I were so ahead of things that we opened each box carefully and un-did everthing and then put them back in the box to avoid that kind of problem, well needless to say that was the only year we ever did that! It took us forever! Ha! Ha! It sounds like you had a wonderful Holiday. Take care.
Love the story of Malia. But you know her screams are music to our ears...what a christmas to remember!
Love the pictures and the PJ are soooo cute!
your kids are so cute. It looks like you guys had a great christmas.
