No matter how many times I've seen it, it never fails to make me laugh. How cute is Natalie running to see her gifts?! I love it. My mom says she misses the reactions of my brother and I when we were little as we saw our gifts, because the sweet joyfulness and innocence of a child is so precious. Savor it, Amanda!

And you...You have wonderful traditions, Amanda! And you'll add to them as the girls get older. What fun lies ahead of you!<br /><br />I didn't mention it in my traditions post, but we also do an OCC box every year. I especially loved packing a shoe box when my boys were little--it made such an impression on them to think that the tiny little box was the only Christmas gift a child would receive. They worked so hard to pack in as much as the box would possibly hold! :)<br /><br />Love that photo of Natalie on Christmas morning! She's so beautiful--a little copy of her mama!Richella Parhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04353214472648623583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-65321322154634955952010-12-16T09:16:22.982-05:002010-12-16T09:16:22.982-05:00Ooh I LOVE the dessert buffet tradition!

You are lucky to have a lot of family in your area so you can easily get together.<br /><br />I like that you get a live tree. I miss getting one but the mess and yearly light trouble made me go faux.<br /><br />Now that your girls are older, each Christmas must get better and better as you watch their excitement!Paula@SweetPeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00159609759110718249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-72460868547738808542010-12-16T08:13:57.072-05:002010-12-16T08:13:57.072-05:00I love A Christmas Story!

I love watching it on Christmas Eve while my hubby and I are wrapping presents...so glad TBS does that 24 hour marathon:) We did 3 boxes for Operation Christmas child, and my boys had a great time picking out stuff and making it fit into the boxes. Your dessert buffet looks so nice.Kelli Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07865834655887862155noreply@blogger.com
