This Christmas started off with Ashley getting a new bedding set from Santa. It was a pretty big Christmas this year for her, so she only got 1 present from Santa and 1 present from us to open before we went to Jeff's parents house.
Can you tell she's pretty excited about it though?
This year, Ashley helped me make our traditional cinnamon pull apart cake we always take to Grandma's house Christmas morning. This year, Ashley was a huge help getting the house ready for Christmas dinner and all the other errands we had to do. It's so much more fun when she helps!
Ashley got so many presents from both sides of our family, they truly spoil her! By the way, did you notice her outfit? Chrissy gave it to her the night before and she had to wear it the very next day. And guess what her outfit was on the 1st day back from school? Yep, the same one.
Here Ashley is getting her duct tape to make pen flowers. She's excited!
Then came her BIG gift of the year...a new iPad2! Jeff's parents chipped in with us to get it for her and it will also be her birthday gift. She was speechless when she opened it...she literally didn't say anything except laugh. She was shocked!
Her school is doing a pilot program where students bring in their iPads to do school lessons, videos, etc. so we made the decision to get her one. Plus, our trip to Kingman was a lot easier since it kept her occupied the entire car ride plus all those times when it's just adults except for Ashley.
We ended the day at our house for our Christmas prime rib dinner and tons of other delicious eats, then say a bit of karoake.
