More Christmas 2009

Sisters can have fun!


The very special ultlimate present from Emma (she picked it herself) to Ava... Sparkle Brightly! (She's a unicorn who sings & has a magic wand)

Emma's special message to Uncle Todd...using her new Bendaroos.

Opening gifts at Omp & Grandma Jill's...here's Todd & Caryn, Ava & Grandad & Grandma.

Look who stopped in for a visit...Grandpa Brad & Grandma Mary.

Here's Omp's special present...Brad made him a lamp out of an old Coleman Lantern.
Playing with new toys at the Cabin just after Christmas.


Momma got a dishwasher! Yay...3 weeks of doing dishes by hand was way too long for me! Thanks Daddy & girls!

This is what happens when Ava is given a red lipstick reindeer nose earlier in the day...she feels free to add the nose herself. Sadly that was one of my favorites. It took two new bottles of makeup remover to get this off...it was in her hair & her ears too. Ugh.





Merry Christmas 2009

Christmas Eve at Auntie Gay & Uncle Mike's house...here's Grandma Dona & Grandad Keith



And us with the Great-Grandparents...

And just the 4 of us...

Christmas morning at home....Here's Emma with her loot from Santa ~ Looks like he found some old school Strawberry Shortcake toys lost in the North Pole. And Bendaroos - Momma & Daddy would never buy stuff like that!! (As Seen on TV!)


And Ava...please note the Ava Gate - Daddy had accidentally broken hers just a few days before Christmas. Luckily, Santa got the last minute plea for a new Ava Gate. And of course, the Garbage Truck...her favorite of all the big trucks. And some ponies.

Some of the cool stuff that will go in the cabin...




And again, you never know what you'll find with Ava & bedtime. She's curled up with Ponies & a Lego motorcycle! And of course, Crunchy (the crinkle blanket) and various babies.

Catch up...misc photos

Our oldest kitty...this was the last time he came home. :(


Ava at the Sunfair Parade...and getting ready for the Fair.

Missing another tooth!

Sleeping in a crazy spot!

Cutting the Christmas tree.
