Christmas 2010 (Part 1)

Each year, the girls get to open one present on Christmas Eve, it is always a new pair of pajamas or a new nightgown.

Poor Ferg… he so desperately wanted to open a present on Christmas Eve too… he actually stole his stocking stuffer out of the grocery bag earlier in the day and I found him in the dining room with it. I took it away, much to his dismay to surprise him again with it the next day.

Surprise! Fergus LOVED his new toy and biscuits. It is so cute to watch him open his own stocking.

Yummy snacks! I love Mike N’ Ikes and Cadbury chocolate.

These nuts are ridiculously good. You know how you have to dig through the mixed nuts to find the good ones? Not with these, every bite is delicious. Almonds, Cashews, Macadamia Nuts and Pecans covered in Sea Salt. Oh my word… salty, heavenly goodness in a can!

Oh Lauren… such a sweet and silly girl!

Getting ready to open my new camera. Yes, that’s right folks, there’s new member in the Hamilton household and she’s a Canon Rebel T1i. I literally squealed with delight when I opened it.

We had a lot of fun opening our family’s gifts at our house before packing up the brunch to take down to my in-laws’ so the fun could begin all over again.
