Hi everyone! This is your friendly neighborhood Graham reporting for duty.
Were you as spoiled as we were?
Mommy and Daddy tried to tone down the loot since our Grandma and Grandpa spoiled us when we went there a couple of weeks ago. Mommy is a sucker sweetie, however, and bought me the costume I have been pestering asking her for since October.
I love the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I think I might just be one when I grow up.
We’re wearing the new Cars pajamas we got on Christmas Eve. It’s our family tradition to open one gift, and it’s always a new set of jammies.
They also got us new books to read and some new colouring stuff.
Mommy mentioned something about something called a “lid” and that it was supposed to keep the marker from “drying out”…and that we seemed to throw lids to the wind with reckless abandon.
Whatever, Mom.
Nathan had been badgering asking Mommy and Daddy for the Pop-Up Pirates Game for weeks on end. And yet?
He was surprised.
He was so happy that he hugged the box.
Mommy and Daddy tried to keep our haul on the smaller side, because our Nana got us a pretty sweet gift.
Emily seems to think that the entire kitchen belongs to her. She can’t speak, but I am pretty sure I can read her mind.
That’s right, you just get out of my way.
Now where was that spice I was looking for?
Hehehe…perfect.
It belongs in this blue cup.
Oh! Here’s the cinnamon I was looking for.
That looks about…perfect.
Emily loves dogs, so Mommy and Daddy got her a big stuffed one. Mommy said something about it being the perfect kind of dog.
I think it would be safe to say that Emily likes it.
Mommy also got Emily her very own phone!
Um, Mommy? You say you got this at the dollar store? I asked for an iPhone.
How am I supposed to keep up with all of my peeps?
Oh, wait! I think I’m picking up a wifi signal! Sucka!
See you guys soon!
Was your Christmas as good as ours was?

That little kitchen set is awesome! I’m so glad you had a good holiday!
Comment by Jill - GlossyVeneer on December 26th, 2007 @ 9:16 amThis is fantastic. Especially since Emily’s expression really does look like she’s saying, “How am I supposed to keep up with my peeps?”
So glad everyone had a lovely Christmas holiday.

Comment by Loralee on December 26th, 2007 @ 12:28 pmGraham, would you be jealous to know that I once MET the TNMNT, and got autographs from Leonardo and Donatello? They were bigger! than I thought they would be.
; )
Happy! Christmas.

Oh my gosh, that is the coolest kitchen! We had a Fisher Price one growing up and it was one of my favorite toys. I’m so glad y’all had a good Christmas - we did too! =)

Comment by Hannah on December 26th, 2007 @ 10:49 pmGraham, later you will thank your parents for not inundating you with toys, toys, toys. Really you will. They are doing the right thing. I’m glad you enjoyed a wonderful Christmas with your family.
