Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas from the Phillips..This year I made pepper jelly, again...and it seemed to be a hit. I also made Lace cookies...which were in honor of my late grandmother...not so much a hit...I also made Shortbread, as I promised Eric's aunt Joan that I would take over for her this year...sadly, she passed away before she got my cookies, she will be missed and every Christmas will not be the same without her shortbread in the mail...I will do my best to honor that promise and tradition she set.

They were so excited to wake up and go on their last Elf hunting expedition for the year.

  They looked so cute as little elves...Max went to a party recently and wanted to dress up in his Elf costume...sadly, he left that party not wanting to wear it in public any longer...innocence lost is always hardest on those who have already lost it...
Santa remembered how much Max loved Marley's Doc Mcstuffin' ones...so, he brought Max some Skull candy ones!

 Lia & Kiri love getting their toesies panted!
 Princess Kiri showing us her Barbie ornament from Joan
 Santa's Elves made Max's favorite super hero bobble heads as TMNT figures!!!
 Strawbop bop bop berry, strawberry shortcake!!! Play doh!!!

 Max got a Ben 10 robe!!!


Eric got some clothes, some gadgets for his phone, a walkie talkie for the cruise and most of all he wanted a portable dvd player for the cruise and car rides for the kids!

 Max has such a great imagination!!! He can spend so much time playing with his toys!
 They never like doing things as the same time! Funny little girls!!! Lia with her tongue out...

 
 Kiri with her tongue out! We had a great Christmas, were able to spend a little time with all of our family and felt so lucky for the wonderful family we have each been blessed with and for our own little growing family.... hope all of you did as well!
