We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a great New Years!! Olivia and I had a great Christmas and slept through New Years (that whole lay down with Olivia thing gets me every time). Bill missed Christmas but was was awake and watched Dick Clark ring in the New Year!
Bill was sick with an upper respiratory thing and he spent Christmas day in bed! We were supposed to have everyone at our house for Christmas Day but had to have a last minute change of plans and go to my sister's house. She hosts Christmas Eve at her house and I do Christmas Day. All the food had to be carried to her house, which was a pain but well worth it. No one had to worry about coming into my house and getting sick. Plus I would never have been able to get the tables set up and everything in order by myself while watching my busy busy little girl and trying to keep her out of trouble. So I am very grateful to "Rescue 911" AKA my sister and her family for having their home available on short notice.
Christmas Eve
It wouldn't be Christmas without this Santa on my sister's front porch. He is over 25 years old and very faded but even the neighbors know Christmas is upon them when Mike puts Santa on the porch. 
Madison sewed a felt cat for Olivia that she wrapped in Christmas paper and gave to Olivia to open Christmas Eve. 
Why do kids only like what's on the bread and not the bread itself? The only way to get at it is to get it all over your face and well into your nose.
The girls going upstairs to read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" with my sister.
Change of plans.....Morgan can read now so she took over the honors. She did a great job.
This was our final Christmas Card. I am very happy with the pictures even though it took 3 separate days and 200 pictures to get three good ones. Oh well. They went out late but at least they went out. Thanks, to Bill.
Christmas Morning
Taking a break to watch her new Backyardagains video.
Learning how to use Morgan's Nintendo DS.
Josh's new puppy, Cooper.
Olivia opened one gift while she was sitting next to my brother, only because he was holding the puppy. Once she realized that Josh had taken him outside, she was done opening presents and stayed very close to the puppy............................
It's been a long day kiddo, time to sleep!!
