Merry Christmas

I seriously cant believe that Christmas has come and gone already! We had so much fun during the holidays. Amir especially. He loved the gingerbread house making, tree decorating, present opening - all of it. 

This was the first year without my brother being here but I got to talk to him on the phone. He had an hour and a half to talk. It was pretty amazing. He also has one awesome British accent!

Here are a few pictures from our Christmas morning:

 He could tell which ones were his. They were all wrapped in Toy Story paper. :)

 He was very interested in one of the books we got him. Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb. He was discussing the quality of the book when I took this picture.

 His new ottoman. He liked playing IN it rather than opening it. We put a Bumblebee Pillow Pet  in it and he said: "OH! This is from Sami!" (My brother who is on his mission) Hilarious.

 Next were some gifts from Grandma W. Before he opened this he shook the box and said: "Oh! Tools!" ... He was right. Play-doh tools!

 By the end of unwrapping he was a little burned out. The last one he picked up and said "Oh, another book" and just set it back down without even opening it. He was right, it was another book. Ha!

Our Tree this year. Brown, Green & White birds. Yep, year number two where the cats used it as their home.
