- The girls waking up at 2am on Christmas morning....we are quite sure Emma woke her sister but they were both so excited to see if Santa had come. Unfortunately, Mommy & Daddy weren't quite as excited at that hour and sent them back to bed until the sun woke up.
- Emma and Camryn's love for their new Little Mermaid fish tanks from Grammy & Papa Mike, each with a beta fish, frog and two snails (sadly, we've had one casualty already - Emma's frog)
- Quizzing from the girls about how Santa gets into the house, why he likes skim milk and which cookies are his favorites
- Playing Lite Brite with the girls, one of my favorite toys as a child
- Watching the girls run around the house snapping at each other with their alligator scarves on that Nanna knitted
- Reading The Night before Christmas, every night for the past week
- Listening to Emma and Camryn sing their favorite holiday songs: Rudolph, Jingle Bells and Frosty
- Making original banana pudding for Brian, because it's his all time favorite..something he has passed on to the girls
- Lots of relaxing time to just hang out with the girls, snuggling, playing games, watching movies with no where to be and nothing to do
- Sharing time with family and friends: you each make the Holidays very special for us, much love!
