Christmas 2008

After much preparation and work, this Christmas holiday has come and gone. Not without a lot of fun and time spent together though.

Making our annual Christmas Eve cupcakes

Anna Kate celebrates the baby Jesus' birthday every year

Then she & Jeff went to put the Reindeer food out, complete with magic sparkles for Rudolph's nose ;c)

And of course milk and a special cookie for Santa

Santa's delivery!!!

She LOVED her chair! (So does her mama - why wasn't Pottery Barn Kids around when I was little?)

Opening a special gift from a friend :)

Look what it was...

We couldn't forget the other members of our family:

Bell playing with her pink diamond ring toy.

All three of the 'children' playing

My parents are in town for a week and arrived Christmas afternoon. We were all excited to see them, but Anna Kate was about to lose her mind waiting on them.

Here she is patiently waiting......NOT!

Time to open presents from MiMi & Pops Miller!

Pops; well, he just couldn't pass up the opportunity to shine...

Probably my favorite photo of the day - Jeffrey in a recent addition to his collection of accessories :-) He HATES the fact that he has to wear reading glasses since turning 40 (ha, ha)

Anna Kate finally gets a Wii game just for her (although mama has played, but I was just testing it...)

And that was our Christmas. I hope each of you had a blessed, safe, happy and wonderful Christmast holiday. Until next year.....
