Coming up for air!


We survived Christmas 2006 in grand style. The girls received more presents than 2 children should ever be allowed! Santa was very good - as were 4 very doting grandparents and 2 aunts and an uncle. Unbelieveable. Brenna was thrilled with her Polly Pocket Cruise ship (and a gazillion more Pollys), several board games, a pair of Heelys, an Irish step tote bag and personalized shirt, and a ton of new clothes. Molly was more than pleased with her Rescue Pet Wake Up dog, Moon Sand, board games, Littlest Pet Shop playsets and a new CD/karaoke radio for her room. And that was the tip of the iceberg. We also got a keyboard which has turned into a fun family gift as we've all had fun playing with the demo songs. Now if only someone could actually play!

My parents were here for nearly a week and we were all sad to see them go. Hopefully they'll use the JetBlue giftcards we gave them to come back again soon! In the meantime, I'm still finding shreds of wrapping paper under furniture and trying to put things away and eat my way from under all of the food in the house. All in all - it's exactly how a holiday should be!!

We hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas as well!

Sounds like a wonderful Christmas. Riley would have a grand time with Brenna, she could bring all her Polly Pocket things to join the cruise ship.
Where do the girls take Irish dance? I wish they had something like that around here. Riley would love it. She wore her kilt and cloak that Grandma bought it Ireland. The weave was called "black watch" and she pretended to do an Irish jig all day long.

Hey, that scene looks familiar... minus the Polly Pockets, Bratz and other pink items. LOL!
