The Reason for the Season
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I certainly did. My favorite part of the holidays is spending time with my amazing family and watching children open presents. Here are some of my Christmas highlights…
Cory and I with our “Christmas tree pic”
I love Talan’s face in this one!
Cory and I gave the boys MP3 players filled with their favorite music (Mickey Mouse, SpongeBob, etc). My godson, TJ, came up to me after opening his gift and said “Nanny, I really love my present so much!” and gave me a huge hug and kiss!
Cory was so surprised to get a fishing rod (among other things) from my mom!
I knew my fruit tray was once again a success when several people came up to me to ask what “those red things in the middle were”?!
Baby Madelyn, Sommer, Baby Cate, Lacie
TJ having some fun with a Christmas tree decorations!
My Cousin Lacie, Me, & My Sister Kiley
As for the gifts, I got some great things! Cory really tricked me. Remember that HUGE Christmas bag for me from Cory I was telling yall about? Well, he actually put a bunch of small gift bags inside the big one and filled the rest of the space with newspaper to throw me off! What was inside the big bag?
A nice bottle of olive oil and wine… I actually gave this as a gift to my aunt and paran and was commenting on how much I wanted it for myself!
I have been wanting Scrabble for ages! This “vintage game collection” actually looks like a book from the side.
In addition to food books/blogs, I am quite addicted to fashion books and fashion blogs! I have been wanting this book for a couple years now.
I was very proud that Cory stayed close to budget. Before we started Christmas shopping, I set a $100 limit for each of us to spend… I think he went a little over.
Cory is planning on running a half marathon so I gave him some new tennis shoes and a heart rate monitor!
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Thanks for reading 
What are some highlights from your holidays?
Did you receive any “healthy” holiday gifts?

Looks and sounds like you had a great holiday! I love all the pictures!
For me the highlights were definitely seeing the toddler open and play with his toys…

Great pics I love it! My husband gave me some new workout clothes!! I was excited because I wad tired of wearing the same thing. My sister and Cory got us a gift certificate to Luke’s resturant and my nanny gave us a gift certificate to Cafe’ Zen(sushi). I got some great luggage for St. Lucia for my sister’s wedding for my mom!!!

It looks like you guys had a great Christmas. Those fireman pj’s are so cute! And I’m a huge scrabble fan. It’s become one of our favorite family games.
