Christmas!!

We had a really fun Christmas this year. We took CJ to see Santa but of course he's at that age where he just looked at him and started crying!! It was really funny! I was really excited for Christmas this year because my Dad was planning on driving from Idaho to celebrate with us. He was with us for Christmas eve and morning and then we went to see Avatar later on that day.

CJ didn't really know what was going on but he had fun ripping the wrapping paper off of his gifts. He got so many cool things and loves/plays with each and every one of them!

Since I no longer have my mom around Chris and I continued a tradition that she had. We each got pajamas for each other and for CJ. We opened them on Christmas eve and wore them to bed that night. It was nice to do something that made me feel close to her during the holidays.

CHRISTMAS EVE!!

Putting out cookies for Santa


Making sure they're safe for Santa to eat ;)


All done!

CHRISTMAS MORNING!!!
A life-size Mickey - Holy Cow!!


And Santa ate his cookies and drank his milk


He LOVES these big legos


Mimi got the knives she wanted


"This is what a really cool Grandpa looks like!"


Opa got a personalized picture frame with a picture of him and CJ in it


Daddy and Uncle Richard being silly boys!


Ripping the paper off was the best part!


He loved finding all of the little things in his stocking!
(Mimi made his stocking and it turned out PERFECT - Thanks Mimi!!!)


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
Gotta love the "just woke up" look!
