Don't Panic!: Christmas is over!....so here's how it went...

Oh my...where do we start. It was such a wirlwind of an experience this year with our 7 month old (Trooper) Lauren!! In the pics we included below were some from our amazing experiment in entertaining the night Grandma Dorothy, Grandpa Steve, Erin, Tim, Noah and Molls came over for a fabulous dinner that we still can't stop thanking Tina and Sharon for making!!

We also had some pics of our night at the pizza place called Roma D' Italia! We had such a great time with Noni, Jim, The Itsons and Michelle!! Thanks again Faye for the awesome long sleeve shirt...it's so comfortable!! Lauren loved playing with Alex and Jenna all night as you can see!!

Then it was Christmas Eve! Lauren couldn't wait to get into all the presents. She thought they were all for her...especially the big ones! Do all kids think this?? I don't know why.

Christmas Day was such an amazing day filled with so much love and warm wishes from family and friends! We had a great time over at Tina's parents house. We were not expecting such an amazing dinner they had ready for us! The environment felt so warm you would think we were actually family!! I had fun playin' Guitar Hero with Marko!

It was so nice to also get to see Michelle Lima for Christmas! For me it had to be atleast a few years, but Sharon it probably felt that way even though she saw her last year. It was so nice to catch up and to have her meet Lauren for the first time!

Christmas time over at Grandpa Cardenas' house was awesome as usual! This time we had two new grandkids for Grandpa to handle! As you can see he was up to the task! I was so happy to be in the midst of the grandkids on my mother's side of the family for the first time!
