Christmas 2011

 As a Smith family tradition, my dad used to read us "Twas the Night Before Christmas before we went to bed on Christmas Eve.  Steve has now read this to Brecken each year and will continue to do so.  It is so fun to watch.

 Steve (with a little of my help) spent 3 hours on Christmas Eve putting together Brecken's train table.  It was a lot more complex than we had thought.  Once it was done, it really is quite cool and Brecken was so surprised and loves to play his "choo choo's".  We have video of him coming down the stairs and seeing his table for the first time.  Such a fun day Christmas was for us.

 B was so excited Christmas morning.

 Big Dog in a little dog bed!!!  We tried to get Jager a smaller dog bed but clearly went a bit extreme on the smaller size!  It was entertaining watching him try to get comfortable in it.  We had gotten a few different sizes so luckily he has a new dog bed that he loves and fits in.
 Brecken loved opening ALL of the presents!
 Yeah Presents
 More Presents!!!
We had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas with Beppe and Papa and Aunt Shelley.  Brecken was so spoiled by everyone.  It is amazing how much he understands compared to last year.  We can't wait until next year.  It is just so much fun to celebrate the holidays through a childs eye.  Decorations and lights take on a whole new meaning.  B still asks for lights sometimes.  I guess it is good that some people don't take them down for a long time after Christmas.  :)
