Christmas 2009

Cannot believe what a great Christmas we had. I figured since Gifford is currently looking for work and the economy being what it is, Christmas would be pretty slim this year. But due to some careful planning and some wonderful friends (thanks to the Swanks), we were able to give the kids a very memorable Christmas indeed.

This is what the tree looked like the night before...after Santa came of course. You may notice that we are at my mom's place. Our house is sooooo small that we left a note for Santa, asking him to put our gifts there. The kids made quite a haul!

Mom opening her gift from the kids...new long johns WOO HOO!

The kids have been wanting a wagon for the past couple of years and I was able to find one for a great price (thanks to Gifford's mom). Ashlyn is working on her song writing skills and Gavin has so many toys in the wagon, he doesn't know what else to do with them, except sit on them.
