Kate was happy with a dollar store tiarra, shoes, and wand and a 3 dollar baby! Gotta love that age! Ella loved her pretty dress, but told me that her favorite thing was the "picy's" (spicy's or tic tacs) from her stocking.
Maya really liked her "Write your Own Story" book, and the polly pocket set she recieved. And ofcourse, Aubree's favorite was her camera.
I was spoiled and got a wheat grinder for Christmas. I had been wanting one for 5 Christmas's, and this year I got two. One from my parents and one from Jeff! They sure made me feel special!
Jeff received a large Craftsman Tool Cabinet for the garage, which was NOT easy to pull off. I had picked it up a few weeks prior and had left it at my dad's house to conceal it. The plan: My dad and uncle Mark were going to play Santa and sneak it into our house on Christmas Eve while Jeff was sleeping. I was to call them as soon as Jeff was asleep. A simple enough plan.... you'd think!!! Jeff set the alarm before he got into the shower, so I managed to turn it off with out him noticing (yes!), but he turned it back on before going to sleep (ohhh no!). I couldn't disarm it again because the keypad in our room beeps each time it is disarmed. He was NOT cooporating! And, he was sleeping so lightly that every time I budged... he woke up! Fianlly at 1 AM I told him I "needed a drink" and went downstairs to call my dad. I peeked into our courtyard and saw them rolling in the tool box... it had gotten so late that they just decided to bring it over. My dad didn't have his phone with him and I couldn't open the window to comunicate with him because of the alarm!
When morning came, Jeff beat us all downstairs and instantly opened up the blinds to let the light in... yep... he found his present! He was surprised... and had no idea how I got it there! So I guess it still worked out in the end!
We finished the morning off with everyone's favorite breakfast.... Cinamon Swirl French Toast topped with fresh fruit and buttermilk syrup.
Love the matching jammies!
