Some Christmas Thank You's

Christmas morning, 2009

This Christmas, we tried to have the kids pose with gifts from our family far away as a means of saying "Thank You" across the miles. (The first picture was actually taken last night, when we allowed them to each open one gift before heading to bed.)

Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop,
Thank you for the new dvd's and necklaces for the girls!

Aunt Terri, Uncle Dave & family,
Thank you for these cool backpacks, hats, sunglasses and lunch bags!

Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop,
Thank you for these fun crafty kits!

Meemie,
These are the toys we bought with your Christmas gift money: Strawberry Shortcake walkie talkies (Isabel) - Littlest Pet Shop toy (Eva) - and Max Steel action figure (Owen.) Thank you!

The good part of living overseas is that Christmas can linger on for awhile. We know that there is a package from Grandma and Grandpa Garcia winging its way to Chile from Texas. The kids are excited for that, so thank you to Grandma and Grandpa for a surprise we can look forward to! :)
