A Partridge in a Pear Tree/Merry Christmas

Our new slippers from my Mom and Dad. The golf shoe slippers crack me up.

Lexi wearing her new outfit from MomMom and PopPop.

Celebrating Christmas with our family what could be better! Well having the rest of our family with us. We had the skpe set up with my parents and they watched while we opened our presents. It was fun to have it set up that way.

Before we opened presents I put the traditional Tahoe Brunch Casserole in the oven and I had already baked Aunt Pam's Coffee Cake the day before. Yummy!

Lexi loves her bike from Santa and the Nintendo DS Lite from us. Lexi really appreciated all the wonderful gifts from our family back in the States.

Anika loves being pushed around on her tricycle and playing with her V-Tech Smile Video games. She looks adorable in her little brown and pink outfits and loves her American Girl, Itty Bitty Baby.

Alexander got a Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaner from Santa and wouldn't leave it to open any other gifts. After a few hours with help from Alexis & Anika, Alexander had all his gifts opened. He loves his little wooden choo choo train.

All of us have already worn our USC gear and I need to wash it for game day. My Aunt Diane made some beautiful ornaments for the kids. I have pictures of them on this post. They are so beautiful and detailed.

Lexi's British themed angel ornament with the London Bridge on it and some adorable charms of Big Ben, a British Taxi and a British Royal Guardsman.

Anika's has the German themed angel with charms with a Stein, snitzel, Alps and a cuckoo clock.

Zander's has an airplane for Yokota Air Base with the tail marked with an SC.


Thank you everyone for thinking of us on Christmas Day and for your phone calls, cards and the gifts you gave us. We hope you enjoyed your gifts and cards.

Love,
