We had a really great Christmas this year. It was fun to be at our home this year. We trade every other year with Shane's family. This year was extra special since we have Sadie. It was fun to have Santa bring a few girl things to our house. The boys loved Christmas and were so excited to have Santa come. We heard "I want that for Christmas" while watching TV for at least 2 months before Christmas. The boys both changed their minds about a million times. Connor wanted the Bakugan playset, which Santa brought to him. Peyton kept wavering on what he wanted, but ultimately got a keyboard and loves it!!! The boys got a Wii from Santa this year and we have all had a blast with it. The ultimate bargin present that Shane and I gave the boys was an air hockey table that we got for .......get this $25! I found it on a blog this past summer and my friend Katie's husband picked them up for us at Sears. Gotta love the clearance. Shane was very skeptical of the $25 air hockey table, and wondered why I was wasting my time, but come on....$25? Anyway, it turned out to be a great find and is really nice. We took the kids train table out of our playroom and the air hockey is now in it's place. Sadie got a couple of dolls for Christmas and some sponge rollers that we are hoping to use soon. Shane got a watch and a memory foam mattress topper from me. He gave me clothes, shoes, and some bath stuff. Overall it was such a fun Christmas and so fun to see the kids so excited. The boys got robes with their PJ's this year which has been so funny. I always wanted a robe as a little girl, and the boys seem to like to snuggle up in them after their showers. Christmas was fun, crazy, full of family get-togethers, but I must admit I am glad to finally get the Christmas tree down and start getting my house back together and the laundry under control. We are ready for 2009!

Oh my gosh Ro, Sadie is SO cute & I can't believe I haven't met her in person yet! I LOVE babies... I know I'm just goona want to squeeze her to pieces. We need to plan to do more things together other than just bunco each month.
Thanks for the comment on my blog. That was so nice, it really made my day or shall I say last couple of months and into the next couple of months. I really cherish our friendship too!
If you ever come across another deal like that air hockey table please TELL ME! I really want to get a hockey table for our basement too. You ALWAYs get great deals on stuff. Love the flowers on your playroom wall = )
Oh and Sadie looks adorable with those sponge rollers in her hair!
