Christmas in June (Christmas 2010 Post!)

Get back in that Christmas spirit with this blog post! I have to say that Christmas was truly fun this year as both Tyler and Natalie were old enough to really participate. Natalie was so excited for everything she received and though there were a few "fits" along the way, overall was just precious in her reactions to her presents. And Tyler was just into everything! Very fun times.

So, a little funny story that relates to Christmas. Natalie has recently gotten very into Toy Story (she started with the 3rd and final movie since it was available on Netflix instant streaming but has since caught up on the first two movies...) and so a few weeks ago, she says this to me:

"Buzz Lightyear...he the coolest toy, Mom. You know what would be good idea? I could ask Santa to bring me Buzz Lightyear for Christmas! And he could bring Woody to Tyler and Jesse to Mom and the dinosaur to Dad. That be a good idea, right?" I just listened, smiled, and nodded...can't really get a word in with her some days, but boy that was a cute earful I got!

Enjoy some pictures!
