Merry Christmas!

We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas. The festivities started on Christmas Eve, when we visited Jodi's house after Santa made a surprise visit that morning! We shared a good meal and lots of fun opening presents. My favorite parts of the night were when Sarah opened her Nintendo DSI and was soooo excited and when Sydney dressed up in her Cinderella outfit and cleaned Jodi's house with her new cleaning toys.


After dinner, Tom and I went back to the house and prepared for Santa's arrival. On Christmas morning, Syd came down to find all sorts of toys under the tree, including a princess tent; sit and spin; and baby doll with stroller, high chair, and crib. The reaction was a little subdued... she immediately went for the baby doll and wasn't really interested in opening much of anything else!


Yesterday, my parents came over, and we celebrated a Drumheller Christmas. Tom was excited to receive a special pair of socks for snowmobiling, and Mom and Dad were pleased to find out they can go to the movies at least one more time before swearing it off due to outrageous pricing! :) Later, we went to dinner. My favorite part of the day was when Sydney introduced the waiter to everyone at the table!



Here are some picture highlights:
