Christmas!

We had a great Christmas this year. We really toned down on the gifts-mainly because we didn’t have the money for a lot of things. Luckily I bought most of the gifts during the summer at the Target clearance sale and on amazon many months ago. Lucia wasn’t happy with what Santa brought her (the older kids got Dream Lites). But when she realized she got other stuff she really wanted like a MP4 player, a sketch book and gel pens, a book series she loves to read and a password journal from Grandma and Grandpa, she was happy with the Dream Lite. Marco was happy with his Dream Lite, his Angry Birds lego set, his Pokemon DVD, his Angry Birds art kit and his Hot Wheels set from G and G. Sylvia was so excited about her new Lalaloopsy doll, her new DVDs, her Disney Princess PlayDo set, and her Angelina Ballerina book set. Tessa was happy with whatever, but she really liked the bear from Grandma and Grandpa.  Uncle B, Great Grandma and Aunt Tami got the kids some fun stuff too. We didn’t spend ALL Day opening gifts like we did last year, so the kids actually enjoyed their new stuff. The Hill’s came in the morning, but Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle B stayed the whole day. We had a nice dinner and just relaxed and played games. It was a nice Christmas.
