Christmas 2011

Our Christmas fun started on christmas eve when we went to some friends house for dinner.

The kids LOVE going to Jeb and Patti's house each year!

Mary Dalton got all dresssed and got her dolls ready, too!

Jackson and Dalton had matching red shirts ~ how precious are they???

These 2 melt my heart! :)
When we got home, the kids were SO ready for bed! Jackson thought he saw Santa's sleigh and they knew they had to get in bed QUICK so Santa did not pass over our house!!! They ran out to leave some celery for the reindeer!

Christmas Eve tradition ~ they ALWAYS make a pallet in our room!

They woke up EARLY today! mary dalton asked around 3:45 a.m. if "it was time yet?" ((Yawn))

They were SO excited to see what Santa had left!

Miss Priss was so sweet about each gift ~ saying thank you to Santa over and over...

After we DESTROYED the living room, we found Santa had left their stockings in the study! They were filled with their favorite snacks and candies!

Jackson was SOOOO happy he got a Nook! he has wanted one since May so he was BEYOND excited!!! I am loving that toothless grin! :D

The kids were MOST excited about giving us the gifts that they had bought for us at the Secret Santa store and while in MS with Nana! Mary Dalton gave her Daddy a visor that she bought "with her own money" ~ she has SUCH a giving heart and is so kind!!! I am so lucky to be her mother!

After Suz, Big Daddy, Sue-anna and Amos came for breakfast we moved the party to their house! Mary Dalton spotted this BIG BOX and her name was on it!!! She got a REAL ballet bar and Suz is having mirrors but in the game room so she can tap and dance until her little heart is content! :) Jackson got real golf clubs and a putting green ~ he got a hole in one on his 1st shot!!!

Then came the BIG gift from Suz and Big Daddy!!!

We put bags on the kids heads and took them in the back yard!

A HUGE new tree house is being built for them and they are soooo
excited!!!!


It is raining here today, so they only got to play a little while, but I know that they are going to have hours and hours of fun when it is complete!!!!


Dalton TOTALLY surprised me with an Ipad!!! I was shocked!!! We weren't buying gifts since we are going to Las Vegas in a few weeks, but he did NOT follow the rules! I have had so much fun playing with it today!


We have had a WONDERFUL day and are so thankful for the MANY MANY MANY blessings God has blessed us with!!!


Merry Christmas!!!!
