Christmas Morning 2009






We had an early start again this year... Oh.. I guess I can't complain... we're the ones who created the family tradition of getting up at the crack of down to open presents... so we did it again this year... (When is nap time??!!)
It was fun waiting this year as we were really looking forward to surprising Briggs with the Wii Beatles Band Hero game this year... I think we were looking forward to it as much as any young child would... it has not let us down either. All it took was for the box to get open for the guys to run downstairs and begin the concert of the century at our house. I don't think I've laughed this hard in YEARS... it really is a treat to hear Mike sing with a microphone!! I tried it once and got a score of 7, Mike took over and never scored below 95 points!! Ryan said he tried to help me out by setting it on handicapped... but I guess that didn't work either. No one told me that the GAME part of this game was that you get judged on your performance... even the singing... so just be advised when you pick up the mic... there's just no singing along with this game if your using the mic... it judges your performance!! =) Hey... Mike even has a British accent now!!!

Christmas Time 2009







Today is the first time this year that you can really feel that winter is here... snow is on the way... I can just feel it!! Good thing Briggs got into the spirit a little bit earlier then Mike and myself did, as it is because of his ambition to start the holiday festivities that we have our tree up already and the lights up outside... if you were to see our place your would think we were totally into it all this year !!
Sitting here today listening to Christmas music... I got a wild hair and decided to mess with my camera and was inspired to take a couple unique pictures... so here they are...
