Christmas Day 2007

This Christmas seemed to be so stress free and relaxed. Not much more that you could ask for. I had 3 good weeks from Thanksgiving on where I just felt so much better and was able to get Christmas all ready and then just enjoy it.




Julia and Uncle Chris came and spent Christmas Eve with us. We loved having them here! We didn't have such a tradition Christmas Eve dinner but it is one that we love- Muffalatas and homemade fries, followed by Toms homemade crepes, YUM!!!! Those are in honor of his Mom who learned to make crepes when living in Paris. That was a tradition that they had in their home growing up.
The kids were pretty wild at this point but somehow we managed to sing Christmas songs, get out the treats for Santa, read the story of Jesus and the Night Before Christmas.
To our surprise, the kids were all snug in bed before we knew it!





Santa certainly made it to the Roberts house; Jordan loving her first official Ipod, Jackson's hand, arm and neck are already feeling the exertion of playing Play Station hour upon hour, and Larson goes out about every 30 minutes cruising in his Monster Truck.

We loved having Tom home for 5 days with us. Just lots of play time and consuming tons of food and treats. Buddy received not just one Digital camera but two! Tom surprised me with my Canon that I have wanted for the last year and Uncle Chris thought it would still be nice to have a small pocket camera for occasions. I felt very spoiled. Eveyone knows how much I love our pictures.
