Christmas 2008 Part 3

One of the quotes for this Christmas that will remain in my mind forever was when Jenna was opening gifts from family and saying, "Pants?!?!  For CHRISTMAS?!?!?!"  Then, later at my mom and dad's, they gave the girls matching dresses (pictures to come later).  Jenna said, "Clothes?!?!?  For CHRISTMAS?!?!"  Crazy girl.

Jenna eating Fun Dip and watching the Christmas Parade on TV.  It wasn't even 10AM yet...
Jenna and her My Little Pony CD player.  This is a big hit with both girls.  Of course!  It's music AND My Little Pony.  The best of both worlds!
"Hmmmm.  I wonder if Jenna will notice if I take this as my own Dora mermaid doll."
All Ash wanted for Christmas was Daddy's chair!!  She loves it and if Tim is it she still forces in it too.
Jenna and her very first Barbie.  This is the Ariel Barbie.  She got her second Barbie at mom and dad's.
Jenna's face "AAAHHHH!" after she realized she had opened all her presents.  Never fear, there are more at Nana and Pa's house...
This necklace was one of my several gifts from Tim.  Under the pearl is our last name initial, then under that it says Jenna and Ashley and then under that it has Kelly and a heart and Tim.  I love it.
We got dressed and played with toys...

Tim and Jenna playing "Cootie."  Of course when we played Jenna followed the game rules for a while and then they went by the wayside.
Ashley with Jenna's Leapster.  I highly recommend this game system.  Jenna loves it and it is sturdy and durable.  Ashley has even played around with it.
We stayed home most of the day, with my parents and my uncle dropping by for a bit to see the loot and then we went over to my mom and dad's house for more gifts and Christmas dinner.  My mom is such a wonderful cook and we all enjoyed dinner.  

So, late in the afternoon we loaded up and went over to my  mom and dad's house. Everyone was there.  Of course my mom and dad were there, Amy, Jon, my dad's youngest brother Ricky, Jason and his girlfriend.

Jenna and Ashley entertained us playing the piano, singing and later dancing...

Schroeder??
Jenna in concert...
I don't know what I was doing here but Ashley appears to be barking orders.  ;o)
And I still have more pictures...I just couldn't decide so I decided to share a lot of them.  My dad took a few of the above.  (Obviously, I am in the last one.  :o)  )
