Christmas 2008

Christmas was a whirlwind this year...we had a Christmas meal with the Starnes extended family, with the Starnes immediate family, with the Wootens, the Jenkins, and again a few days after Christmas with my parents.

Here is the youngest generation of Starnes. We kept Kendall happy through this picture taking process by saying 'yea, Kendall' and encouraging her to clap her hands.

Baby Savannah slept through most of the activities.

Grandmama led the kids in telling the nativity story by using a kid's nativity set.

We love it when the daddies and the uncles help with barbies ;) This barbie doll was a big hit with Haley this year...we've acquired several additional barbies and accessories since.

At the Wooten's...Kendall's the only grandchild who is allowed to sit on the table.

Just as she did last year, Haley distributed most of the presents - she helped open some, too.

Santa brought Kendall a new bouncy seat to hang in the doorway. Kendall enjoyed it - it took her awhile to get the hang of the bouncing, though.

Santa brought Haley 3 princess dresses (surprise, surprise) - including this Aladin dress.

We watched Chevy Chases's Christmas vacation...and no, it was not censored for the little ears ;) However, they did not seem to remember any of the not so rated G language.

It's about time! I've been stalking your blog for a month waiting for an update. What are you busy with two kids and a full time job or something? :) Love the pictures. The girls are beautiful as always.
