Christmas 2010

Merry Christmas!!  What a wonderful Christmas we have had!  The kids have been good all year and Santa wanted to make sure they knew it!

The fun began by opening our stockings this morning!  Stetson was thrilled that Santa brought him a microphone.

And we quickly moved to the presents under the tree.  As you can tell, Stetson wasted no time getting right to business!

Cassidy is still figuring out this whole Christmas thing and did things at her own pace.

We all received so many fabulous gifts and there is no way to list them all, so here are just a few.  Both kids received a pillow pet from Nonnie.  Huge hit!

Stetson received this COOL hunting ensemble from Uncle Dude and Aunt Rock.  This is definitely a favorite.

Diddy Bug got these super cute lady bug slippers from Aunt Allison and Uncle Chris.  And yes, I realize they are on the wrong feet but they're still cute!

We finally finished opening all the gifts under the tree and Stetson helped me open all the shutters in the house.  I don't know how well you can see in this picture but when he opened the shutters in the living room, he could see two HUGE red bags outside on the patio.  He is asking me what that is in this picture.

It was freezing cold outside and the wind was blowing like crazy so Daddy brought the bags inside so we could investigate them further.  We finally realized that one said "To Stetson from Santa" and the other one said "To Cassidy from Santa".  What could be inside?!

A BIKE!!  Not only a bike but THE bike Stetson wanted!  And he thought Santa was too busy to bring him his bike this year!  That Santa sure is tricky!  (Stetson is also wearing the slippers he got from Aunt Allison and Uncle Chris)

The second red bag was a fropper for Cassidy (aka a bike)!!

So you would think that would be it right?  No!  Stetson also mentioned that Santa left something upstairs by the tree in his and Cassidy's playroom.  Wow!

He left bean bags!  One for each of them!  That will be perfect for watching tv and playing since there is nothing to sit on.

Opening presents was finally over!  Now it was time to dig in further and REALLY see what we all got.  The first thing Stetson wanted to do was put on the Batman costume Uncle Kevin and Aunt Cami sent him.  Too cool!!

We all braved the cold temperatures and let the kids ride their bikes too!  Stetson was a pro!

 And Cassidy was pretty darn good too!

 Look at him go!

The outside playing was short-lived, though.  It was too cold!!  So we went back inside and little miss girly girl sprung into action.  Check out her new jewelry!

Don't forget to notice her new high heels as well.  She is quite the little fashionista!

We have had such a great day and don't want it to end, but we are exhausted!  We hope you all had the best holiday as well!  Merry Christmas!!
