Christmas!!!

Santa came to visit our house!  Emily woke us up but Abigail wasn't awake yet.  While we were waiting for Abigail to wake up, Emily went to the loft and looked down to the living room.  She kept coming back to our room to report what she could see : )

 Abigail sniffed out her candy cane that she asked for and started eating it right away:
 A gift to Emily from Abigail:
 New hats and gloves for when it gets cold:

 A gift from Mom and Dad.  Emily saw this in a store well before Thanksgiving and told me that was what she wanted from us for Christmas.  So I went ahead and bought it that day because I was afraid it would be gone.  She had already forgotten that we bought it that day : )
 Cookie play set for Abigail from Mom and Dad:

 Her "Ariel" waterfall she asked Santa for:

 New dress up!!!
 Then about 12:30 it hit me that they were missing some dolls I had bought for them : )  So I dug around in my closet and found them and wrapped them.  So we had 2nd Christmas in the afternoon!  I also found a couple of other little things that I will give them next weekend : )  Guess I better make a master list to look at next year when wrapping for Christmas!

 The girls enjoyed the day playing with all their new toys.  It's so fun to hear Emily in all her imaginary play:
 
Joe and I played Yahtzee and Trouble and I beat him every time : )  We then cooked steaks, potatoes and salad for Christmas dinner  . . . yum!
The first thing the girls did this morning was put on their dress up clothes.  Abigail enjoyed her breakfast on the floor while Emily tried out her new sewing kit:

 Merry Christmas everyone!!!
