Christmas 2012 Recap in Photos

We're back!  We had a great Christmas--first at our house on Christmas morning, then an impromptu trip to visit my husband's family (it was supposed to be the day after Christmas, but bad weather that day meant that if we wanted to see them, we had to fit it in on Christmas Day), and then several days with my family. 

The girls were thrilled with everything.  And my husband completely surprised me with my big gift--an iPad!  I had been wanting one, but didn't ask for one because I knew I didn't need it, and there were lots of other things I needed more.  But I got the things I needed PLUS an iPad!  I couldn't believe it.  I love it!

So here are pictures from the last few days.  Enjoy!  And Happy New Year!

Rachel's biggest wish was a Merida dress (the princess from Brave).  It was the last gift she opened.  She was so excited.

Daddy got the girls head lamps.  Hilarious!

Rebecca loves Minnie Mouse!

She also loves Doc McStuffins, so my mom made her this doctor's coat that says, "Doc Rebecca."

Not only did Rachel get a Merida dress, Grandma had a whole box of Brave stuff, including another Merida dress (that she made herself!), wig, shoes, crown, necklace, earrings, bow, arrows, and quiver.  This is Rachel opening the box

then expressing her excitement!

And all dressed up.... (isn't the wig hilarious???)

Rebecca had to get in on the Merida excitement, too....

Both girls are excited about my iPad, too!

What fun!
