A Magical Christmas!

We had a really great Christmas at the Eaton house! Dylan had a blast and I have to say that I had probably the best Christmas of my adult life!! Being able to experience Christmas through the eyes of a child is magical.
Santa came to visit D because he was such a good boy!!
Big D and Nic Nic got him a basketball goal! 
Yummy Milkshake
Opening presents from Mimi!
He loves his stomp rocket from Mimi!
He must have went down this slide 100 times Christmas Day!
I know that gifts are not the reason for the season but I did get some pretty amazing gifts! ;) I got an iphone 4 and a XM Radio..and so much more. My family spoils me too much. They're awesomesauce.

Christmas Eve we went to light the Christmas tree at my Dad’s grave.

Even though my dad passed away 4 years ago, there were times during our Christmas festivities that I felt totally at peace and I knew that he was with us. :)
Oh, and we played Apples to Apples Christmas Eve and it is soo fun! It is really easy to play and the game moves really quick. The name makes it sound like a kids game, but its not. You only have to have as little as 3 people to play it. I totally recommend it.

The greatest thing about Christmas....
An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is Christ the Lord."
Luke 2:9-11
