MerRAY Christmas 2010

MerRAY Christmas, I just came up with that right now!
Sometimes I've just got it!

Our Christmas morning featured:
A new kitchen for Addie and Frankie.
Craigslist yo!

We've been on a major The Office kick up in here.
I found this gem a few days before Christmas and was able to get free shipping, so Santa brought it to our family.
It may become a White Elephant gift someday, but for now, I love it.

The guys at Matt's office have Nerf wars and Matt didn't have a gun.
So I hooked him up.
I mean, Santa did. ;)

The Office.
Period.
Check out this best quote #2 here.

I like to call this "Ghetto Tree."
Ghetto Tree happened because I could only find one strand of working lights (you know, the kind with the green cord). So I did what any self-respecting Christmas light lover would do, I put the white corded icicle lights on.
Voila.

Santa ate his cookies and drank his nog.
And I guess after Santa ate his cookies, he unlocked the front door and let the reindeer in to eat their carrots.
Good thing Santa is so thoughtful.


Addie saw her kitchen first and Christmas morning was over for her.
She didn't care about anything else.




Christian and Addie got Alexis a Zebra Snuggie.
She tried to act like she didn't want it, but seriously, who wouldn't love that?!

We got some awesomely thoughtful gifts.
This is Alexis opening the book that Grandpa Ray made for each one of his sons and every single grandchild.
It's called Sharon Harmon Ray: A Book of Rememberance.
Matt and I may or may not have opened ours early and read it every night.
Some nights through tears.
It's pretty awesome.

We also got cute home-made scarfs from Cami and Cosette. (thank you, they are so cute!)

AND we got 31 dvd's of Seagrove family home movies.
Awwww, yeah! You know what we did all Christmas day!
Thanks Dad!

Matching babies.
That don't sit still for pictures.
Thanks Allie!

The aftermath.
Pretty messy.
And I don't care.
And that's a whole church volleyball game there playing on the big screen.
The. whole. darn. thing.

Our baby's first Christmas.


Hope your Christmas was very MerRAY too!
