Christmas 2010

Brace yourself.....this post has a TON of pictures!!!! 

We had a wonderful Christmas here in Florida.  It started a few days early when we received a package from Colorado from Nana and Papa Gene.  We got the go ahead to open it early....so we did!

Cailynn got a Mickey Mouse guitar that she loves. 

And a camera since she loves playing with mine so much.  She also got a ladybug backpack that she is obsessed with.  I didn't get a picture of it, but we cannot leave the house without it!!

Casey got some warm sweaters since its been so cold here!

Cailynn also got some cool window clings....unfortunately they only lasted about 20 minutes!!

The Sunday before Christmas Cailynn wore her Christmas dress....she was not it the mood to take pictures so this is the best we got!!

Christmas Eve we hung out at the house in the morning and Cailynn got one of her presents from us......

A giant pool filled with balls!

Her face may not show it but she really does love it!

She rides Elmo in it!

We skyped with my dad too, unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of this.  We got it on the camcorder but it takes like a day to upload those videos and I'm just not patient enough!!  Papa Chuck and Mary got Cailynn a very cool indoor slide.  She LOVES it!  

That afternoon we headed to Casey's mom's house. 

Cailynn is obsessed with santa.  She calls him "Ho, Ho!" 

PawPaw bought her a horse to ride on!

This little girl is a PRO at ripping open presents.  She went to town!

Nina and PawPaw bought her a Tinkerbell big wheel.  She could not wait for it to be put together!

Aunt Tiff got some new shades!

Playing with daddy's hat!

PawPaw putting together the big wheels!  THANK YOU!!! 

Christmas morning we opened a few presents and stockings here at home.  Please excuse my child's hair....it's pretty rough in the mornings!

Riding her new "car." (You can see the slide in the background!!)

Showing off her baby doll!

Jumping on her new trampoline.....easy to assemble right honey?

Christmas day we drove to Marianna to spend time with Casey's dad.

Cailynn helped everyone open their presents.  I'm pretty sure that was her favorite part.

Such determination!!

HAHA....Had to do it Tiff!  Her despicable me glasses.

Like sister, like brother!  Can you tell they are twins?

I had to take some pictures of the decorations around our house too... 

This is an advent calendar that my grandma made for us.  We love it!

I made a plate for the kiddos to put cookies for Santa on.

Our Nativity scene.

Cailynn's Nativity scene.  She loves "baby Jesus."

Our tree.

We spent yesterday taking down all of our Christmas decorations.  No we are not scrooges...we just want to be able to relax next weekend when Casey has the day off!

Whew!!  I told you lots of pictures....and one more to leave you with.  Even with all the new toys no matter how fancy, or big, or noisy....the best Christmas present is always..... 

THE BOXES!!!!!!!!
