Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was for Mawmaw's house and the present opening. Here are the kids in front of the excessively packed tree. Yes, every.single.one. of those gifts is for the kids.


THe beginning of the madness.
Emma's most favorite gift, her Dora "banity" (vanity). It talks and makes all the appropriate hair dryer noises, etc and has makeup, brushes, a crimper and a curling iron. However, I had to laugh while I was getting ready Christmas morning, as Emma had to assess my own beauty instruments and asked if I had a crimper. Uh, no.
Here are the two GIGANTIC bags full of clothes for each of them. I didn't even bother to count most of it, but I did count 8 new skirts for Emma and 3 new dresses, and fifteen long sleeve shirts for Ethan, not counting the sweaters and button downs. Just plain longsleeved shirts. Insert a giant eyeroll here.
The aftermath...this is the back of my Ford Expedition on the way home. Completely full.

Moderation is not something that my MIL understands but the kids are definitely happy and well clothed.

Man they racked up!!! And what do you mean you don't have a crimper?

Awesome! Did she buy out The Children's Place or what??

Gotta love the "banity" with the crimper. Just wait until Emma asks for a real crimper and you have to come up with some excuse not to buy her one. That is a ton of stuff!

Can I assume that the inside of your house now looks like a Toys 'R Us? Gotta love grandparents!

Glad you all had a good Christmas! See you back at work tomorrow.

A banity. Every girl needs a banity...

Boy, you scored on the clothes, huh?
