Christmas Morning 2008

Christmas Morning. After 20 years of being drug out of bed by kids, this year Diane was the first one up. Phillip and Jenny were coming over at 7:30 to open presents with us, so the girls and Phill all slept in. A tradition in Jenny's family is to have Egg Nog and Cinnamon Rolls so she brought some over for us all to share. It was a nice morning and everyone was happy. Here are a few pictures.

Phill got John Bytheway cds. It was a boxed set. He loves to listen to John when he drives to work.
A Lady at Phills work did pencil drawing of all the kids for me. They turned out really nice. This is one of Phillip and Jenny.

Connie opening a gift.

The Lee's got us this nice clock for Christmas. Now we have to find a place big enough for it.

Jenny opens a new High Chair for the Baby.

Phillip gets a shop vac. Now Phill can have his back.

Amanda gets a new Twilight Hoodie. "Are you afraid"

Megan loves Mustangs so she got a Mustang shirt.

Connie gets her Thunderbird.

Enjoying the morning.


We had a wonderful morning. We are so thankful for the Christmas season, and for our Savior Jesus Christ and the opportunity we have to spend time together as a family.

Christmas Eve 2008

Christmas Eve we always go over to Grandma and Grandpa Wakens house for the evening. Grandpa always reads the Christmas Story from the Bible and then Twas the Night before Christmas. It is always fun to spend the evening with Grams and Gramps.
