Christmas 2008 Part 4

Here are the last of the Christmas pictures.  Right before February...

Ashley holding court...
Our family likes to re-use bows and apparently gift bags because look at this card...Many - a marked out name!
Jenna opening a gift.
Jenna with the dollhouse Nana and Pa gave her and Ashley:
And with Ashley's cash register from Amy and Jon.  Jenna, Ashley and I all enjoy playing with these toys.  Don't judge me.
Ashley playing with the dollhouse. 
Sassy trying to steal a gift...
Ashley with her kitty in the purse from Jason.  (Dad took this one).  Jenna has a couple dogs in purses and Ashley always tries to take them.  Now she has a kitty!
Spreading disease...they were both feeling/getting sick.
Jon and Jenna's faces in this pictures are funny to me.
The girls trying out a little Dance Dance Revolution.  It has since been returned...
Here it is.  "A Major Award" as featured in the movie "A Christmas Story."  It is Fra-gee-lay.
That's it for the Christmas.  I also got a camera bag that is very chic (as Jenna would say.)  It looks more like a purse and holds my camera, my flash and a few lenses.  I just got my new lens yesterday.  :o)  I also got a zoo membership.  The four of us, plus one more, can go to the zoo all year without paying.  The girls and I are especially excited.  Tim got me chocolates, perfume, the necklace, and some candles.  Also Aqua Globes!  Haha  Too bad I had already killed all my plants...

Here is one sample picture with my lens I just got.  I just got to play with it tonight and didn't get many pictures but I LOVE it.  Thanks Mom and Dad!
