Christmas 2008

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!! Ours was filled with lots of fun hanging out with family.
The weekend before Christmas, we spent the weekend with John's dad (Dave), step-mom (Janice), his sister (Deanna) and her husband (Ryan).

Santa even made a surprise visit, which Ava was really excited about and hopped right up on his lap to have a little chat with him.

Max fell in love with a caroler and angel decoration. He loved to look at them, give them hugs, and play with their hair. It was so cute!!


Santa came! Ava and Max with their stockings.

Ava with her craft desk Santa and his elves built for her. Santa did a wonderul job and Ava loves having her own desk.

And thanks to Will's mom, Myssie, Santa found a great gift for Max. He has been enjoying his tunnel. Not as much as Ava has, but I am happy that he will go through it and has fun chasing Ava through it.


We spent Christmas morning at John's mom (Marsia) and step-dad's (Ted) Christmas celebration.

Ava and Max had fun spending time with their cousins Bridee and Lainee.

The girls all got new fishing poles. The Snoopy poles will be put into retirement.

In the afternoon on Christmas, we spent the rest of the day at my mom (Mary Lou) and step-dad's (Gary) place.

Max sharing Grandma's lap with Emerson. Max gets jealous when Grandma holds Emerson, but he doesn't get jealous when I hold Emerson. Go figure!

Ava opening her Barbie cash register.

This is the first present Max ripped in to with Dad's help.

And on the Saturday after Christmas, we celebrated with my Dad's (Gary) side of the family.

Merry Christmas, Foleys! Natalie loves her tunnel too, and Lukas is quite jealous of Ava's craft desk (I am, too...I would love for Lukas to keep his crafts off the dining table!)
