Santa Strikes Again!

We had a great Christmas this year - and since i got a fancy new digital camara, i thought i'd attempt to share some pictures with everyone....please don't mind the "dust" of construction while i try to figure this all out. 

Miss P got a fabulous collection of Disney Princesses from Santa this year - she was out of her ever livin mind!

 Jack asked for a bike and must have been extra good when we weren't looking, because Santa dropped off an extra cool bike! (yeah - i know the picture is sideways....when i uploaded it, it was totally the right way....oh well....i'll figure it out sooner or later.....)

T got a snazzy jacket that seems to be right up the 20-something alley.

The family spent the whole day playing....and playing....and playing some more.  We got Rock Band 2 with the drums and all the whatnot - WOW we had a great time!!  T is really good on the guitar and Brian figured out the drumset pretty well - i even sang.  CRAZY!! 

We got a Gamer Trophy too - we play lots of games, so it seemed like a great idea to have a trophy to go live on the winner's dresser for the night.

Yahtzee! was first up.  Had to explain everything to Miss P and Jack, but then we were off.....talk about beginner's luck.....Phoebe got yahtzee's on her first TWO turns....it was all down hill after that for the rest of us.  The trophy lives on her dresser till the next game.....was FUN!!  When's the last time you played yahtzee??  You should...



Wishing that all of you had a great Christmas filled with lots of cookies and great memories with those you love best....

Why do you suppose.......I found THIS in my Christmas Decorations this year??  None of us have ever seen it before, but the more i look at it....the more familiar it looks....what is it even??  It's really that color and sort of plastic-y.... and flocked too for good measure.....Enlighten me.
