Our Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Cambree was so fun. I actually woke up at 6:00 woke Ben up and then went and got up my tired girl. I was just too excited to go back to sleep. I am so the little kid that I always was.


Here is Cambree in her beautiful new Christmas dress that I totally got a great deal on. I love bargain shopping.



I thought this was a better pic, but didnt show the whole dress.


Santa was very good to this little girl this year. She is always so spoiled once we have gone to all the Grandparents houses.


Mom and Cambree in our new robes.


Cambree and daddy in the sled that dad gave her. She gets pulled behind Dad's new 4-wheeler. Yes we were all very spoiled.



Christmas decorations went up a bit early this year. I ended up putting them up the week before Thanksgiving. I just couldnt resist. I equate it to the fact that I didnt really get to celebrate or decorate last year. I was in the hospital from Nov. 3 out for a week for thanksgiving back in on Dec 1 until Dec. 20th. Ben waited to decorate the tree until I got home. This year I just needed to be surrounded by all that I missed last year and I enjoyed every minute of it. Here are some pictures.




Here is our tree. I love our tree. It mostly has ornaments that Ben and I picked out when we were first married, but also some from when I was growing up. It now has the addition of Cambree ornaments. I give her a new ornament every year. I just love that it is fun and beautiful all at once.




This is my newest addition to my Santa Claus collection. My aunt makes us a new Santa Claus every year. I treasure them. If any of you know my aunt you know that this can't be easy for her. She is so crippled from arthritis. It amazes me. I have I think 7 now and each one has its own look.



I found this ornament in Pittsburgh when we went and I had to have it. My grandpa died 2 years ago and coke will forever remind me of him. He always had to have his coke.


This is a santa from quite a few years ago. Arent they amazing?
