Christmas Morning

The morning started at 6:30 with screams for Daddy to come
and let the captives out of their room.

This is Sydney's purple Rosie train that she has been talking about all month. We asked her at the beginning of the month what she wanted for Christmas and she said purple presents and a purple train to go in her purple stocking. We were very relieved to find that they made a purple Thomas and friends train for girls.


A My Little Pony set that she got from her Great Uncle Craig and Great Aunt Cathy.

It took Noah 3 hours to open his other presents because we had his train set sitting out for him to see when he came down the stairs. We kept trying to get him to open his gifts and his response was always the same "No thank you, no thank you!"

Noah and his train set. He would sleep with it if we would let him.

Jewelery and a purse from the Frisco Gang.

Sydney's very own cooking set.

Amanda, I stumbled across your blog by hitting "next blog" at the top of my own blog... I don't know what the likelihood of "running into you" that way is, but I was amazed as I read to realize that you go to my church! :) Welcome to the PC - hope your year is going well. Thanks for sharing the stories and pictures of your kids; they are delightful and make me look forward eagerly to when our little boy (age 5 mo.) is old enough to enjoy Christmas morning. I hope to meet you in person sometime! God bless.
