Christmas

Okay~ here are our Christmas Eve and Christmas photos.
We had such a fun Christmas.
We started our Christmas celebration as we always do, on Christmas Eve Eve. Ty and I have always made Christmas Eve Eve "our" special time durring the holidays. We take some time away from all the hecticness and just be together. Usually we just do dinner somewhere nice, but this year we took advantage of having a babysitter (THANKS AUNT ALLISON!!) and saw a movie too.

Then it was Christmas Eve. We started the day early this year because Stephen had to be into work in the evening. So we did the big meal at 2ish and then spent the rest of the day at my parents. We opened the traditional gifts (which include sibling gifts, pj's, ornaments, & grandparent gifts) and the gifts from Steve & Lyndsy's family because they were going to be flying to Washington the following day. Scotty loved all the excitement and being with his cousins.

I'd also like to add how sneaky my husband can be~ Before we went up to my parents, Ty "found" a gift "from Scotty to us" in the laundry room. It was a new HD video camera. YAY!!! We have needed (okay, wanted) a new camera for sometime.

Can't forget about Keeley!Scotty's new best friend, "Buddy".

My parent gave Scotty the Fisher Price farm and a tractor set that went along perfectly with his new Fisher Price "farmer friend Buddy" and the Fisher Price Farm See-n-Say. Great minds must think alike. Scotty will have no excuses when it comes to knowing his animals.

My real presents under the tree!
