Christmas is such a busy time. I love being with family and having all of our mini-Christmases but also look forward to a Christmas when it's just us..... playing on the floor until evening and never getting out of our jammies! I think next year we'll plan one day like that. On Christmas Eve we went to church and then to my aunt and uncle's house for Christmas dinner. We go there every year...I love that my whole family gets together on the holidays...Grandma, parents, aunts, uncles, siblings, cousins. SO much fun!!
On Christmas morning we went to my parent's house and did our family Christmas. Ayla was excited and...well... let's just say that santa was very good to her. I'm calling this the "Christmas of excess"!! When we got home a bit before noon, we did our own Christmas and once again, Santa was very, very good to her. This certainly is a little girl who is in need of NOTHING!
It was so fun this year. She hated Santa(as you all know from your Christmas cards) but loved the lights, decorations, music, presents and the birthday party we threw for Jesus complete with a birthday cake. I'll post some videos when I get the time to catch up, they're pretty cute too.
At my mom and dad's Ayla started off with a candy breakfast from her stocking(so NOT my doing!!) I suppose it turned out okay because she followed it with ham, eggs and pears. 
This year we were blessed with my SIL's family also. Her mom, sister and BIL joined us along with their precious baby...ETHAN JAY! He's precious.
This was the Christmas of Dora for Ayla....pj's, robe, slippers, bath stuff, doll, toothbrush, toys, playhouse, backpack, trike and dvd's. Holy cow! We might just change her name to Dora!! Of course she loves it all. This is my dad and my brother Tom putting together Ayla's Dora tricycle.
Ooooooo, and Dora bath gel, lotion and bath fizzies!
Prpoerly dressed in her Dora robe and slippers...I really try to keep the character clothing to jammies and panties. That way she gets her fix and I donm't have to take her out in public looking like a goofball!
Boston boy! Doesn't he just look like trouble?? Surrounded by trash and he didn't even do it...this time. Santa brought him and Gracie treats, bones and toys. Blue cat got some treats and a feather toy.
Our happy little girl playing with her new baking set
I hope everyone had a Christmas as fantastic as ours.
