Christmas 2010

After our Christmas morning, next was waffles at O’Brien Christmas.

 

I saw these neat little butter trees at the grocery and thought it would be neat to use on the breakfast table. 

Christmas morning breakfast – waffles made by my dad 

yummy breakfast

ready for presents

DS game from Amanda

Wii game for Matt from grandparents

DS game for Amanda from Ethan Dad happy that he got a new baseball pc game from us. I even researched a special controller to use with it. 

We had the boys open up their presents to each other at the same time, and they didn’t catch on that they were the exact same game. I love Ethan’s smiling face of realization.

Wimpy Kid book for Amanda

Loopz memory game for Ethan from A. Jennifer & U Dan

Matthew loves Toy Story – we got him the Action Links set

Super furry vest for Amanda from Grandma OB

toffee for Trent

My mom got all the kids these lock boxes, just a little box to store special little things. They each had their own little key to open them. Inside was a personalized pencil case with pencils with their names on them! Cool! By the end of day they had stored most of the presents inside of them, since they got video games and books.

Zingo for Amanda from us

a new picture of her grandkids and they are in the same colors and order from 3 years ago.

Amanda gets Mario Kart for wii – awesome!!

Looking for their stocking ornament on the tree, which they always enjoy.

We played some Apples to Apples and I won the first game. Then I helped my dad with the baseball game I got him and it wouldn’t load which upset him. Realized it needed at dvd drive, which their pc was not. I think we stayed until 3pm.

Then we went over to Trumps at 4pm, Derrik was coming around 5pm from M’s side in IL.

Ashton with his gift

It’s a pillow, it’s a pet, it’s a Pillow Pet! He loves the Panda Pillow Pet. These seem to be everywhere this year.

Pokemon DS game from Ga & Poppy

Happy with Wii Party game from Ga & Poppy, and check out the panda so cute opened up.

Paper Jamz guitar, strap and amp from his Uncle Derrik. He was so happy to get, since he was playing with it at the store.

Many guitar poses

Thanks to U. Derrik he is making the Billy Idol face and thanks to his dad the rock ‘em horns. I am so shocked by how this pic does not look like him at all. 

We didn’t get a picture of the 3 of us, so I had T take me with E back at home in front of our tree. It was a jam packed Christmas Day and we were exhausted by the end of it all. But a great time spent with all our family.

Next up early Sunday morning to drive down to Columbus for my mom’s side Christmas.
