Christmas 2008

The girls made out like bandits again this year at Christmas. They came over to our house later Christmas Day, after they had been with their mom's families and recieved presents all day long. The highlight of Abby's presents were the Littlest Pet Shop animals. She got a large box of them, and when she opened them we found out that she got them earlier that day from someone else in her family. O well, now she will a set to play with at our house. jeez, this is too much to keep straight :)
Sabrina got a sewing machine from her grandmother so from Santa at our house she got some remnants as well as some simple patterns so she will be able to learn to sew, as well as a gift card to JoAnn fabrics. I'll have to go help her spend it :)
Our family gift this year was 3 sleds and the Muppets second season set of DVD's. I got Sean the first set of Muppets last year and the girls loved it and watch it more than we do, so we thought it would be a great idea to get the next season.
Last year we tried to go sledding on innertubes and they popped and when we went to get sleds they were gone, none to be found anywhere. In January. gotta love retail. So this year Santa brought them. And it was 60 degrees on Christmas Day, and 65 on Friday and Saturday and 65 when we woke up this morning. And no, we don't live down south or in California, we live in the NORTH!!! I'm really hoping for snow sometime soon, so we can try out our new sleds. Maybe I shouldn't say that too loud, we'll end up buried like the poor people in New England.
