Some Christmas Pictures

We have had a lovely Christmas and vacation time.  Joel goes back to work tomorrow, and as much as I enjoy having him home, I will be thankful to get back on schedule.  The girls need it and so do I.  I've almost finished putting away all of the things (the many, many things) they received for Christmas.  Our children are very blessed, but they don't want to get rid of anything so that makes it hard!  I had a big clean-out while they went to the movies with their Daddy, which helped, but I think there is still stuff to get rid of.  There always is though.  So without further ado, our Christmas pictures!

The last picture is Pilly and her giant dog.  She loves that thing and sleeps with it and drags it up and down the stairs.  Really a big hit!  LB actually opened some gifts.  He enjoyed tearing off pieces of paper and ripping them into little pieces.  He also enjoyed tearing pieces of paper off of his sisters' gifts, which did not go over well.  He unwrapped my sister's present so I had to rewrap it. He was really getting into the unwrapping spirit!
