Christmas 2011

This year was a great year for Christmas! Liam was really into things this year. He liked the tree decorating, singing songs, and talking about Santa. He was not a great fan of sitting with Santa but he would talk about him. I did get a slow, late start to the season since we spent 10 days in Florida.

We did have everyone over for Christmas Eve. As usually we opened presents and ate to much food. Liam was very excited about the presents. Oma and John had been over the day before so he had a taste for ripping the paper. He was ready for Chris' family to join us on Christmas Eve. He asked for Dylan and Emily all day. He knew when they got here that we would start opening presents.

Cars track! 

More gifts!

After Christmas Eve, Liam was more excited for Christmas day. He knew that there were more presents to be opened! Christmas morning Liam woke about 6 and we waited to hear Santa's jingle bells before coming downstairs. He was so excited to hear those jingle bells!
Liam's presents still wrapped! 

Gift One

He had to stop and play with this one before he finished opening it. 

This one was kinda heavy! 

Lego fire trucks!!!!! 

This was fun to watch. Liam had a hard time getting it out of the bag. 

The gifts..... There are more in the back! We are so blessed to have so many people that love our son. He truly loved every gift he got. Well, maybe not all the books at first. He does love them not for bedtime!

We had to have daddy open the fire truck and the police truck! 

We had a wonderful Christmas. There was some sadness when we had to leave our toys for Church and to take a nap. But, Liam enjoyed everything about Christmas. We had a lovely dinner with our neighbors. Us and the Gibbins did s book exchange with the kids. It was a wonderful idea. It was nice to teach them the idea of giving. Liam got Poppy and loved picking out the most girly book he could find. I also think Poppy loved the bag and wrapping as much as the book. Liam loved his Lego book. It was a great treat! I see this returning next year! 

We are so blessed with the out pour of love and support for our family. This holiday season had been a little hard on us and everyone has truly helped make it memorable! Thanks you all so much!
