Christmas 2009

Christmas this year was a lot different than most. Typically, we spend Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with Mike's. This year my mom and dad were out of town, so things were a little different. Mike's mom spent Christmas Eve with us, and the rest of the family came over on Christmas Day. It was kind of nice having everyone come to our house this year.

Grandma and the cutie pies...


Grandpa Russell...(a.k.a. Mike's dad) came over on Christmas Day. He is so hard to buy for. I thought for sure he wouldn't have the shark mop...what do ya know...he'd bought one the week before! I need to start getting a little more creative with his gifts:)

It looks like you guys had a lot of fun. Ashlyn was very excited because she got that same bike for her birthday:) Now if she could only ride it with no training wheels!

Hi, Russell family...it's the O'Neill family! Glad to hear you guys had a good Christmas! Ryan had told me you guys had a blog a while back, but forgot to sign up as a follower. Madi and Luke are so big! We'll definitely have to get together sometime soon when we are in Vegas!
