Christmas Day -2007

Enjoying the dollhouse that Santa brought.

A star is born, and is opening presents. Her future is so bright she has to wear shades.

Who is that movie star amongst us?

Taylor got a new desk set, and loved it!

Lydia shows Mommy her new doll. Nani got Lydia a Madame Alexander doll that came with a puppy and carrier.
She loved that !

Nani got Taylor an American Girl Doll that looks just like her.
She even has a dog named Coconut.

Taylor gives Nani hugs for her new doll.

Santa brought the girls a new dollhouse.
Lydia loved it so much, we had a hard time getting her to open any other gifts.
She finally said no more when she still had a stack to open.

Maddy slept in and missed most of the present opening. When she awoke, she was loved on a whole bunch. Nani and Glen give her some bottle. Cuz, boy was she hungry.

Lydia found a chocolate coin to eat - yummy!

Nani and Lydia!

An adorable hat from Aunt Marsha!

Quiet time for Lydia and one of her new babies!

What a glorious day we all had. We cherished the time we had with Nani and Glenn. The girls seemed to understand how fortunate they were for the many gifts they recieved, from far and near. They were so thankful! Yes, I know they are just kids but we hope that we are teaching them how blessed they are, and that not all children have such wonderful and beautiful things.
Thank you to all who sent gifts, and cards of well wishes.
Our friends and family are truly the gifts.
Lots of love and kisses!
