Jenna and I snuggling in her bath sheet that Scott and I gave her
So excited with her presents!!!
Kalia was so excited about her Disney Princess table and teaset. She loves her Tea Parties!!! She plays with it almost all day long some days.

Dad burst out laughing that we had suprised him and gotten him the same golf bag as he had gotten for Scott (different color though). He didn't even have to open it to know what it was.
Dad always does his own shopping to get each of us a special gift that he has chosen. Here's Kalia opening Alice in Wonderland
I love my mom!
Reading a story from Auntie Crissi
Mom and Dad loved the Shutterfly album that Kalia gave them
Is anyone really ever too old for stockings? (Scott opted to be out of this photo, but he still got a stocking too) It's so fun opening all of the little presents too! (and some not so little) 
"Papa Joe" helped Kalia peek into her stocking
Sleepy head the next morning made a beeline for her table It always seems like too difficult a task to choose pictures when I've taken so many! And just think this isn't even half of them. I just love Christmas so much and it's not like I have the camera out all of the time taking pictures of the family together (usually it's mostly Kalia), so I wanted to take time to put these up. We went to my mom and dad's for a brunch of Crepes on the 24th, and in the afternoon we did a couple of presents, put Kalia down for a nap and played a game all together. When she woke up, Scott and Dad took her in the hot tub with her new dolly (they both had to skinny dip becuase I didn't bring their swimsuits - Kalia and her doll that is not the other two!!) In the evening, we had a delicious supper, and then gathered around the tree to read the Christmas story, share about our blessings and struggles from the year, and of course open all of our presents!!! We put Kalia to bed long before we finished, and then spent the night. I just love how my family does Christmas. It takes all day, but my mom does a really great job of making everything feel special.

SO much to comment on! I love reading your posts :)
First of all, let's start with the thing that I was most shocked about: I DEFINITELY thought you meant U.Joe & Scott were the skinny dippers!! Not a pretty picture. Was relieved to find out it was Kalia & her baby :)
That sleepy head pic of Kalia is SO cute!!
That's a great picture of you & your Mom...I love your Mom too :)
Crissy told me all about that Curious George book that Kalia loved so much. She knows just what her niece will love, huh!
Best pic ever of your dad: the laughing one! It is a good reason to laugh though, same golf bags!
Great family picture in front of the tree, Kalia is ADORABLE!!!
Hailey was pretty enthralled w/ the pics of the new table & tea set. Aren't little girls so much fun?!!
