We've had a wonderful Christmas week!! Lots of family, crafting, and cooking!! I just love this time of year and with six kiddos it is so heart warming to see the excitement in each of their eyes. I love how their anticipation grew each day as it got closer to Christmas!! I hope all my sweet online friends had a wonderful and merry Christmas too!! here are a few pictures from Christmas eve, and Christmas morning!! Hope you don't mind an abundance of them. ;)
Our home on Christmas morning!


Christmas Eve, baking cookies!!

My sweet hubby got me a KitchenAid mixer, in aqua!! I even got it a few days early so I could do some baking with it. :)

Our new family village!! I gave these to our family as a Christmas Eve present. There is kind of a funny story behind these. I had purchased a couple after searching etsy, and then my sil, Tasha told me how she had just got some for her family and did a little village with names. We thought it would be fun for both our families to each have one!! I think they are the
CU
TE
ST! Make sure to check out

LOVE how adorable they are!!

It looks your kids got beautiful gifts and I´m sure they liked. I love how you wrapped, I always forget to do it till the last day and usually they are not so nicely wrapped. Hope you had a fabulous day. And have a happy 2011 year. Cheers, Ana (Pompitas)
