...Christmas 2011 in a nut shell...

Call me a slacker..but I had to post about our Christmas....

then I'll get back to the new year!

So, our Christmas in a nut shell...

We baked....LOTS..

we opened a present every weekend throughout December...

Our Elf on the Shelf...made himself quite comfy...

We enjoyed Christmas plays and songs....

We made new friends..

We went to holiday parties...

We went to our first ever Holiday Cookie Exchange Party...

(our favorite cookie was the Lactation Cookie, sounds gross but no they are NOT made with breastmilk, they only help you produce it..but anyone can eat them!)

We ate presents...and sucked on wrapping paper...

We got every Barbie we ever dreamed of...

some of us (eh-em, Reese) didn't know what all the excitement was...

We played with hundreds of new toys...

We received AMAZING gifts...including a new glue gun!!

Read here for more on that...

some got stuffed into giant gift bags...

We visited family and cherished special moments...

We opened Christmas PJs per our Christmas Eve tradition...

Ofcourse we left cookies and milk for the big guy...

We enjoyed new Christmas morning faces...

We contemplated where to start...

We shared Christmas memories...

We got even more REALLLY cool Christmas gifts...

We spent quality family time...

We (I mean I, suffered through football season)...
