Christmas 2010

I opened this Christmas card of Davis & Jason visiting Santa.

So cute!!! I hope they surprise me with one of them every year.

This was the first year Eugene the ELF watched over Davis to report back to Santa if he's been naughty or nice. Every morning Eugene was hiding and we had to find him then he was off to report back to Santa.

CHRISTMAS EVE

I cooked for my family & Jason's family, a total of 13 people. It was a little stressful but everything turned out really good. We enjoyed enchilada soup & honey lime enchilada, chips & Salsa & Strawberry cake dessert. Zabryn & Saydra provided entertainment by reading The night before xmas & singing Christmas carols, It was awesome! Davis opened his xmas pj's & a couple of other gifts that included Thomas the train. (of course)

CHRISTMAS MORNING

We had to wake up Davis because Santa came and we were way to excited to wait!!

Santa brought Davis a sled, DVD portable player, Thomas the train track & much more.

Grandma & Grandpa Jaeger came over to watch Davis rip through his presents. He did really good at opening all of them, it took a little longer due to his urge to wanting to open the toys and play with them asap. It was kind of funny any time he opened clothing we would throw it out of the box and move on to the next gift. Little stinker!

Grandma & Grandpa got davis a mini recliner chair,( now he can be twins with his dad), tractors, trucks, dvd's, books, pajamas, & cute clothes. Uncle cory gave davis Thomas the train speedy engine toy. Aunt Jaime got davis thomas the train toys & dvd & pretend play doctor kit.

he wanted us to pull him all morning long on his sled, he has no idea how much fun we are going to have when we take it outside in the snow.

After all the excitement of opening presents we ate breakfast. We got a vitamix blender from costco for christmas, jason whipped up a fruit smoothie & I cooked bacon, eggs and cinnamon rolls. My parents got us a mini crockpot, can opener and gift card to our favorite place, olive garden.

CHRISTMAS DAY

we went to jaime's home for lunch, we ate crepes, the famous cheese bread, fruit salad, and ham.

Then it was present time!!!

Jason's dad gave Davis something very special, it was Jason's old hunting vest that he had when he was little along with old pictures of Jason wearing it.

It was time to open Grandma Darlene's presents. She gave him Thomas the train track, marker & chalk board, dvd's, books, trains, hot wheels, abc telephone, pj's, cute clothes and much more.

It was a long & crazy day, but the best part of Christmas is spending time with our family. We really enjoyed watching Davis get excited about opening presents. This year he understood opening presents but next year he will understand who Santa Clause is.

Merry Christmas!!!!!
