I can't believe Christmas has come and gone! It happened so fast! We are all back to the hustle and bustle of every day life. Usually I go to Montana with my family for Christmas and have a week of lounging in jammies, reading books, playing games and just having fun. But this Christmas was still special. I am thankful Zanna is old enough now to make Christmas feel magical again.
Santa came...
Oh what is this?? A new TV? Why yes, yes it is!!! We may have spoiled ourselves a bit with this one but we felt justified!
Jathan and I did not go to sleep until like 2:30 or 3:00 because we were setting up this bad boy. We had to rearrange lots of furniture... we made a huge mess then had to get it all tidied back up for Christmas. After getting the TV set up we had to try it out! So we started a movie at about 1:00. Luckily our children like to sleep in!
The stalkings... Hmmm... Santa got a little skimpy with Jathan and my stalkings...
Troop is eyeballing Zanna's candy cane. He is thinking... I could grab the candy cane and make a run for it... she would never catch me!
Zanna got a pack of all the disney princess barbies. You know, I thought that she was just going to die over this. And now I am thinking why didn't I just buy one or two. Who needs that many barbies all in one Christmas? Oh well. Lesson learned. (she does like it... it is just a ton of barbies)
Troop got lots of trucks and trains. Zanna liked playing with his toys much more than her own. She really is quite the tom boy. She would rather play with a dragon or truck. Although she does like her dress up's, make up and finger nail polish... hmmm... She is actually really well rounded... ha ha ;)
The after math.

Did you make all your matching jammies? They are cute. I can't ever find good matching jammies anywhere.
I love your old hutch thing. The black/white/blue piece of furniture. Yeah, it's awesome!
We didn't get to bed until about that late, too, but we were just getting presents ready--not watching a movie on a cool new tv. Fun!
Such a cute family! I love the picture in front of your tree of the four of you. We don't all look like that on Christmas morning around here! haha
Um...9:50?! Are you kidding me? I thought we were doing well to get started at 7:50! Okay, I still think we did well. Your the odd ones out. I am sure of that!
Oh, I love your little commentary on the "Troop conspiring to take it and run" picture! Too funny! I really think you got his thoughts as they were!
Your family is absolutely darling. (I sound like a mom. And old one.) But it's true! I'm glad you had a nice Christmas! And I am jealous of your splurge! But you do deserve it. Don't even doubt it.
I am loving reading about all of your Alaskan adventures-although the wolf situation makes me a little nervous for you. You're such a grown-up celebrating Christmas away from the fam!
Such a cute family!! We actually got McKinzley the same package of barbies, and after I was thinking the EXACT same thing as you, I should have only gotten one or two :) Loving all of your updates!!
