Merry Christmas to you all!

I thought I would start our own little "Coffee Break" type thread here to discuss any special surprises we received under the tree (in the driveway? Wherever!) this year... It's just after midnight in Ontario/Quebec, so it's official!

Any big surprises this year?! Any photos to share?

We're having a quiet Christmas at home. The kids have opened their gifts, and all were hits! DH and I bought a new car ('09 Corolla) on Tuesday, so no big gifts for us. We don't get the car for a couple of weeks, but I can't wait to play around with our seats in it!

Merry Christmas everyone who celebrates, and Happy Holidays to those who do not!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all!

Nothing in my driveway except MORE snow. I'd like to have a chat with the chubby guy in the red suit about that because I'm pretty much D.O.N.E. with snow right about now.

PS Nicole, I haven't forgotten about picking up my Britax stuff, I just can't even get my van out of the driveway right now.

More snow here, too, obviously.. I think we might get a bit more than you because it blows in from over the water here..and down from the watershed. I think we have almost 3 feet in the back yard (I've never seen more than about 18").. Our van IS out and about--we went to Future Shop yesterday!

The kids had a great time this morning.. Aiden got the Baby Chou Chou doll he has been singing the song for (commercials, bah!) over the last year....SILLY SANTA. Needless to say, he gave that to Abbi pretty quick. Aiden also got a Sony portable DVD player that turns into a tablet, a clone trooper helmet, a FP camera, some Air Hogs choppers, Paul Frank shirts, and more! Kyle got a Wii Fit, new snowboarding pants (MENS!), shirts, and more.. Mason got a flip video recorder, Rock Band 2, a bunch of Paul Frank and BustedTees shirts, and an R2D2 robot. Abbi is very happy with a Barbie, MP3/MP4/Camera touch player, FP camera, clone trooper helmet, etc! And we still have Grandma and Grandpa's this afternoon!

Merry Christmas to everyone! Yes, we have lots and lots of snow here too. Over 50cm in the last two days! (Southern Interior of BC)

We are actually doing Christmas tomorrow since my parents were some of the people affected by all the cancelled flights. They ended up traveling on the bus overnight and I picked them up at 11am this morning. They were supposed to arrive at noon yesterday. At least they are here. My parents are napping right now, and my kids are not napping right now! Anyway after dinner we'll prepare for Santa's arrival, and tomorrow will be the big day with presents and turkey. DH has gone skiing and I have a few minutes of "quiet time" right now!

I hope Santa has been good to everyone. It sounds like some of you have been really good (new car!?!!!). Blessings to everyone for a wonderful Christmas with family and friends...

We do feel spoiled having a brand new car. We're a single car family in a neighbourhood full of dual minivan/SUV families. Many of our friends think we're nuts to have downsized our car, but good gas mileage combined with decent incentives meant we couldn't resist the chance to jump at something new as our lease is running out. I hope that we'll be able to fit two boosters and a RN in the back of the Corolla when one of the kids wants to have someone over for a playdate, but if we can't, we'll make other arrangements.

No new snow here, but the kids had a great time tobogganing this afternoon. My thoughts are with those on the west coast, and I hope that the weather makes for safe travel conditions over the rest of the holidays.

Merry Christmas everyone!! Our kids got completely spoiled this year, but their toy boxes were pretty much empty (except Rileys) so it was "justified".

I got a HARVEY'S SEATBELT BAG that I had been dying for, and its absolutely GORGEOUS!!!! I so so so love love love it. Yay!!!!

My first ever turkey dinner turned out great so I feel like a real grownup now, lol.
