Christmas 2009

Well, Christmas has come and gone and I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! We sure did at the Perry household. Busy, but merry!

The week started out with festivities at the in laws'. The whole gang was together and everyone was happy with their gifts and the kids had tons of fun outside, it was rather warm that day.

On Christmas Eve, my mom and stepdad come up and stay the night so that they can see what Santa brought the next morning. We had our feast and watched the traditional National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and added A Christmas Story to the agenda this year. We baked cookies for Santa and the kids set them out for him. They awoke to many gifts that were wanted and some that they didn't even ask for.

On Saturday, we had Christmas with my brother and sister and then traveled to Ashdown to my dad's and visited there for a bit.

Hope everyone has a HAPPY NEW YEAR and after turning the big 3-0 tomorrow, I can't wait to see what 2010 will bring us!

Christmas Time is Here!!!

As you can see, everyone in the Perry household is ready for Christmas, even Lola, the cat! She loves to lay under my tree every year and then gets mad at me when I put presents under it. Isn't she sweet?!

This is our tree this year. You can't see my spriggly things that I'm using this year for the tree topper, but I was just playing around with my camera on this picture.This is my attempt at the kids' Christmas picture for this year. They were super good and sweet!! I think it turned out ok!

They continued to pose for me even after I got the picture that I wanted. This is usually a task for my kids. They are not the ones that love to pose! I guess anything with Santa though, will get you in the mood! :)

Love his picture of Jackson!! Looks so sweet and innocent!

Last, but not least, my neice, Ashley, was the lead in her senior play. She played Alice from the play "Wonderland". She did a very good job and we are super proud of her!!!

Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!! Not sure if anyone even reads this anymore, but I know Debbi will see it! ha
