Christmas 2010

MY NEW TOY!!! EEEK!! Can you believe it?!?! I got a vinyl cutter for christmas! Justin got it all set up for me and I sat down to play, and I couldn't think of a single thing to do with it! Now that a few days have passed, and the shock has worn off, I have kept it plenty busy with the motor just a hummin' away! I love it!

Christmas eve morning, we go to breakfast with my family. After breakfast, Justin had to go to work for a few hours, and so I went with my mom and dad and sister's Meg & rach to see the "windows" at the Grand America Hotel. It was a lot of fun and put us in the festive spirit. I love being downtown at Christmastime!

Christmas morning was a blast at our house. Evelyn slept until 8 a.m. and loved her new dinosaur train. She plays and plays with it. We've already been through three sets of batteries for the engine because she plays with it and then leaves it running...ugh...but oh well. Anyway, she received this darling sweater & skirt from her one grandma and the peg board toy from her other grandma. She puts the little pegs on her fingers and walks around with them.

She loves her train! Justin found a piece of scrap wood at Home Depot on Christmas Eve! Can you believe it!?! Yes, he has good luck like that; not me! So, he found the wood and it was perfect to place her train on. In the last couple days it has moved all over the house taking the train with it. She plays with the track, and then with the dinosaurs and then tonight we had to come up with a bed for them since she wanted to take them in her crib with her. I knew she'd never go to sleep if she did that, so we improvised. They are now resting peacefully in the little wagon. Good night dinosaurs. kiss kiss.
