Christmas 2007

Mindy wanted a new tree this year... a pre-lit tree. Luckily, there was one on sale and she was able to get it for 50% off. As you can see, there was no room under the tree (it touched the floor) but there was plenty of room for presents around it.


The first thing that Alex noticed was the wooden kitchen. Whenever we are up in Pflugerville at Betsy's, he loves to play with it... so we figured 'why not get one ourselves.' As you can see (by this and following photos) it was a hit!


The family unwrapping presents at 7:00 AM.


... Andee likes the kitchen too.


Aaron and Aimee got Nintendo DS Lites for Christmas. Santa brought them each their own (so they can stop borrowing their parents'). Now we can get some 4-player action going on Mario Party DS!


As soon as he unwrapped the apron and hat, he put them on!


Andee found the chocolate that was in her stocking... and everyone elses. Not to mention the apples and oranges and cookies and crackers...


Mindy and the kids - after opening presents.


Mindy got a new DS to replace the old one she busted (and no this isn't part of the "Santa/Nintendo DS Replacement Program").


Andee and Alex got a tent and tunnel system to play in.


Andee enjoying the tunnels...


... but not enjoying her new pajamas that we made her wear for pictures.


Alex got a big alphabet puzzle so that he can work on getting those ABCs down.

It sounds like everyone had a great Christmas. I can't believe how much Andee and Alex have grown. MERRY CHRISTMAS to your family. I hope Santa brought you all you wanted.
