Christmas 2009--just a few snapshots...


Edith mostly enjoyed the boxes and the wrapping paper, though she also had a good time trying to play with Dylan's toys.

I get some rare (and pretty amazing) snuggles with Dylan under his new Thomas the Tank Engine blanket.
Edith likes her new rag doll, Matilda, that I made for her.  She especially enjoys playing with the yarn hair.

Dylan looks stunning in his new shirt and tie.
Edith also looks stunning in her beautiful little Christmas dress.

A bit of silliness during our big dinner.  Christmas crackers are an absolute must!

We all had a beautiful day.  Our Christmas duck was not great, but the rest of the meal was good.  My Christmas pudding was especially popular, which comes as something of a relief as it was made about 6 weeks ago and served without tasting it first.  SCARY!

Anyway, we are all exhausted but happy.  The kids were spoiled rotten by grandparents and great grandparents and certainly didn't feel a lack in the present department.  Martin and I chose small but meaningful and well thought out gifts for each other.  All in all, a tremendous success.

Now it's time for bed!
