Bagenski Christmas 2009

If anyone has wondered, the annual Christmas letter is in the mail! I had a rough couple weeks before Christmas so they didn't get out until Saturday! DOH! Had kidney stone removal surgery the Friday before Christmas and spent a good 5 days in bed recovering from that. Was kind of a bummer to miss decorating and making cookies with the kids but better than the alternative; suffer THROUGH Christmas and miss it all. Was an easy choice. :)

We had a wonderful few days with family. Nice and relaxing and the kids had a blast. I think they got everything on their list as they have multiple people spoiling them!! LOL! Here's the pics from Christmas Eve and Day.

We went to Kathy and Stan's for Christmas Eve as we do every year. Gotta love tradition! :) We all enjoyed some snacks while waiting for everyone to arrive.
She's a present....

Hunky Cousin Matt! Can't believe how old the boys are now. Can't even call them "boys" now! They are MEN!
Waiting EVER so patiently to get it going!! LOL
Grandpa Stan telling the kids about how important the Bible is and how all our questions are answered within it.

They were listening very intently. Good babies.

Santa Matt passing out the loot!


Allison woke the entire family up at 5am to open gifts! OY that was early!!! Mark was not impressed.
This look says I'm tired but excited!
Santa had to leave the stockings on the hearth cuz they were too heavy!




Nooooo!We are READY to open!

Allie got some Sims expansion from Santa.
Santa brought Luke an Easy Bake oven! He's wanted one for years! Smart kid: now he gets to make his own dessert AND he doesn't have to share cuz it was a present from Santa! LOL!
Gracie finally got her OWN DS. She is a happy girl!


New cap guns!!! He wants to be a soldier. Ugh!
2 months to buy, 4 hours to wrap, 7.6 minutes to destroy the living room.
Stocking madness!!
After annialating the gifts it was BACK TO BED!! Luke chose the couch.
So did Grace.
Christmas morning getting ready to open gifts with Nana and Papa.
Luke's first 'chapter book' from Great Grandma! He was excited!
Woohoo! Walkie Talkies!!
Allie's "speakers" from Great Grandma ended up being a sweet little teddy bear with lipgloss!
Mom and Dad made us all brunch. It was YUMMY!
That was pretty much it!!! Like I said, totally relaxing and enjoyable!! Hope it was fantastic for all of you too!
