Heslop Christmas

Best Christmas ever this year! Granted Santa got alittle out of control, so mom decided to pull out a few presents to return to the Walmart. Really my kid had her own couch, I swear I had added this all up. Lets a few of the best goods: my new S8100 Coolpix Nikon (compact w/ lots of good specs), Zune for Jon and all the accessories, shadow box for Jon's 100 yr old danish bible, Maddie's CHEAP kitchen set (hand built by yours truley, seriously folks every little peice took me 2 hours to assemble), Maddie's "awesome" scooter (she said it), family's new HP black friday special laptop, family little portable DVD player and movies galore. I just want you to know that last year there was nothing so this year I ended 2010 with a bang. I just finally ordered internet so by next week I should be blogging again. Hope your Christmas was just as merry and bright. I know its not about the presents, we actually got secret Santa"ed" and I decided to pay it forward. I made awesome treat plates complete with white chocolate popcorn, oreo truffles, and Jenica's merigue cookies. I'm still hoping to take a family picture SOON, sorry there was no Christmas card from us this year again. Darn snow, I'm totally over the whole white Christmas thing. Thanks Gpa Vance for all the presents, above Jon is showing off some of his loot.

Jon's best present ever, look at his face. I was really excited to give him one whether he wanted it or not.

Shadow box that I got for half price at Hobby Lobby my new favorite store. Its not just for "crafty" people.

One of the awesome movies we got along with Ice Age, Robots, Over the Hedge, ECLIPSE :), Blindsind, and some movies for Jon. Jammies that I bought over a year ago and have been dying to give her. SO CUTE!

She loves the scooter, now if she could just learn how to make it go on her OWN!
