remembering christmas

is christmas really over already? i can't believe this month has come and gone! what a wonderful christmas we had... as i've been packing up all of our christmas decorations, i've been contemplating the memories made over the past few days. the smiles on the kids' faces as they were completely surprised by our gift... the smile on my husband's face as he was completely surprised by his mom's gift...ethan and caroline singing happy birthday to jesus on christmas morning... and the memorable times we spent with family. i have several blog posts dancing in my head (i guess that'd be the modern day version of sugar plum fairies?!), and i can't wait to share some priceless pictures of christmas 2008.

the official christmas celebration may be completed for this year, but don't tell caroline. she can still be found spinning around, singing "away in a manger" at the top of her lungs. i guess she's just carrying out the idea that we should be celebrating Christ's birth all year long! so here at tenlittletoes, it's gonna be christmas a little while longer! stay tuned for more...

thanks, ashley! yes, it is our house. i'd always had a fake wreath in the past, but my sister-in-law kristie showed me how easy it is to make a wreath out of your tree scraps! i was so happy with out it turned out. i want to leave it up all year! :)
