Christmas Morning

In an attempt to save money this Christmas, Dad and Mom decided we wouldn't do stockings. They had a little surprise Christmas morning when all eight stockings were lined up on the coach...full. :D Don't they look cute? The second green stocking says Ted so 'someone' pinned Mami's name over it.

What would Christmas be without Christmas socks???

Dad and his rather large pencil.

Dad felt left out, him being the only one that didn't get socks. He improvised.

My long awaited coat. I had picked it out in NYC and have had to wait for it all this time.

Ah, so sylish. :)

Sarah with her Marines shirt. She was very proud of it and wore it to the gym the next day.

Mami with her gifts.

Emily painted Dad a paint-by-number of two deer. She was supposed to give it to him four years ago, but just finished it this year. :)

Anna with her apron.

And my favorite picture from Christmas. Teresa got her Willow Tree nativity that she's wanted for a while. I love the face. :D

Then we went to my uncle and aunts for brunch. We relaxed all day and then watched White Christmas. And that was our Christmas.
