Christmas Recap 2010

This year for Tornado it was all about Toy Story!!

He really got Christmas this year and was super excited!! Christmas Eve we kept checking in on where Santa was with the Santa Tracker Online.

The day started off with myself being up at 630am watching for the boys to wake up. Hubby woke up at about 730ish and Tornado about 800ish.

We opened presents and just took our time...I think we were opening presents until about 1000am. It was Mom, Dad, Tornado and Grandpa D.

After present opening we cooked up a delicious breakfast.

After breakfast we started the battle on opening the presents and playing with them...this took us until Dec. 27th to get fully organized and complete!! Actually I am still not 100% done and it is Dec. 29 2010. LOL BUT it is good enough for me...now I will just slowly finish up.

Than at about 200ish we made our way to Grandma D. and Papy's house. There we played Mario Party 8 and had dinner. And of course we visited too. We made the journey back home at about 900ish.

Phew!! It was a fun filled day but we were sure ready for bed.

The face says it all :)

Very excited over the shark!! He dropped everything to go and grab his alligator like it.

This was the last gift he got to open...but before he opened it we told him they were all done and his response "OK lets go to Grandma and Papy's house now."

Than he found this last gift and well forgot about leaving our house. LOL

Mom and Dad had told Tornado that Santa does not bring guns and well usually little boys do not get toy guns for Christmas.

SO He was SUPER Excited about this one!! He told everyone he talked to about it and made them listen to the horrible sound it makes. LOL

Baby Shower Nov. 27 2010

Dear Baby Surprise:

Today was your baby shower out in Red Deer. It was a special day because no one on Grandma C's side of the family were involved in your Big Brothers pregnancy. So to say the least I think it filled your Grandma's and Auntie's hearts to be able to through you a shower!!

You got spoiled!! And fun was had by all.

Mommy is thankful the roads had cleared up so that it was a stress free drive. :) Great Grandma L joined me and Tornado for the ride up too. Dad stayed home because well lets face it Baby showers are boring for guys. LOL

Tornado was right into the presents!! He was opening up other gifts as I was still looking at what you got from the previous one he had opened. LOL

Now on to the pictures:

The cake that Mommy made
