Christmas Day

 Merry Christmas Everyone!!!  We had a great day today!  The kids woke us up around 7:30am and after I jumped in the shower, we headed downstairs to open presents!  We had a great pancake breakfast, opened more presents and then got ready to host 40 people for lunch!  We had friends from work over and also hosted 4 US airmen (2 guys, 2 girls) from one of the bases here!  Since they are over here, deployed, without their families, they got to spend the day with ours!  It was fun to get to know them a bit, chat with them and introduce them to Persian food - our lunch :)  We ordered food from a Persian restaurant for lunch - and had more than enough to feed everyone.  It was a great day with friends - including a bit of the Kinect late in the afternoon/evening!  After Facetiming family, we finished opening up presents, cleaned up and the kids headed to bed!  Merry Christmas to all our family and friends!  We love you!

 Kylie and Megan made us all presents/drawings...here is one of the many she made for Dan and I :)

 Opening presents from Grammy and Grandad

 Peeps gallore!

 My ballerina with her new tutu from Grammy and her new ballet slippers (that she wore all day long) from Mom Mom!  (the only reason she didn't wear her tutu all day long is that we didn't open the present until nighttime)!  She wanted to wear them both to bed :)

 My Tweeter rockin' it out!
