Can I just say that despite these hard economic times and a very tight year for us financially, WE HAD THE BEST CHRISTMAS!
Izzy was so much fun and it was just so special to watch her reaction to all the gifts. It took us over 2 hours to open presents Christmas morning, not because she had so much (even though she did), but because she wanted to play with everything the minute she opened it. I know she is still so little but she seemed appreciative of her presents and we tried to make a big deal over each of them so she would realize each one was special (or we hope so). Obviously, this is not everything she got, but it's a sampling of her favorites; the Backyardigans Flip Open Sofa, books & tea set and her babydolls. She also got a mini TinkerBell Power Wheels from Ya Ya & Mike, a shopping cart w/ play food to keep at MeeMaw & PaPaw's and a kitchen set to keep at Pap & Nanny's. The best part is though, all those gifts and all she wanted to do was get in Daddy's Shop Vac box and play! Ha! I also managed to get one half-way decent pic of Izzy in her in her Christmas dress on Sunday to post. We really enjoyed our gifts to each other and from friends & family as well. I think they all really there's from us too. I had to start shopping in July and I had to get up at 4am and go out with the crazys on Black Friday to get everything I needed, but it was all worth it in the end. I hope you all had as wonderful a Christmas as we did.
