Christmas 2009

Here are a few highlights from our Christmas! We had the best Christmas and spent some great time with family!

The fun started on Christmas Eve. We went to a Christmas Eve service at our church with my parents, brother, and my aunt and cousin. McLean even sat through most of it! He loved singing the songs! We went out to dinner afterwards and then headed home to get ready for Santa. McLean was so excited about leaving cookies for Santa. However, after we put him to bed, he began screaming and crying because he didn't want Santa coming into his room while he was sleeping. It was so sad. I was the same way when I was little. I didn't want the tooth fairy flying into my room while I was sleeping. Finally, by 10:30 he got settled down and went to sleep!

Uncle Brian worked so hard on his gift for McLean. He made him a wooden box. It was really neat! He put a wooden alphabet floor puzzle inside it. Oh, as you can see in the picture, McLean insisted on wearing his snow boots Christmas day.

The highlight for McLean was getting Woody and Buzz from Toy Story. Woody has already gone everywhere with us, and has not been put down yet!!!!

After his nap, McLean wanted to put on his Woody costume from Halloween! He wore it the rest of the day! Christmas was very magical seeing it through McLean's eyes this year! We loved all the time we got to spend with family and celebrating Christ's brith!
