Merry Christmas to Everyone

Here are a few fun shots we took on Christmas....Grandma is using a dress up rack/shelf we got from Brian's sister as a photo frame for her and the girls.....I thought it was too cute to not post don't you agree? The girlies love their "Grandma".....

Here is Samantha opening her favorite gift, Squawks McCaw, a fur real pet parrot. I originally despised this thing! Every time I walked by it in the store it blurted out "Hello" in an annoying voice! So when Santa brought it to our house I let out a nice loud "ooooh nice" in my monotone "oh this toy is so annoying" voice. Well, as I was cooking dinner, Samma left him on the table and all I heard was "whatcha doin" and it was the silly parrot. So now he's my new friend and we even can make him do gag things like "fart".....it's awesome. I'll get video footage of him later.....and last but not least......

Brendan's precious face the moment he opened his cell phone! I cannot believe that we caved and bought him a cell phone, however, he has shown so much responsibility this year and has kept his grades excellent. He also wants to go to all his baseball and basketball practices by himself now and also wants to walk to friends houses so..........I need to be in touch with my boy!
