We had a great Christmas this year. I think it's by far the best Christmas that the kids have had. I'm so thankful that Andre was home this year. He's missed 2 Christmas's with AJ and Ronde's first Christmas because he either in Japan or Iraq on deployment. We woke up and brought the kids into the living room. AJ started rubbing his eyes and said "My eyes are dreaming". The perfect reaction to seeing all his gifts under the tree. They were so excited. Ronde loves his new bike! The basketball hoop was a big hit as well as the tool bench. Andre gave me a new gold necklace and I gave him a pair of Air Force 1 shoes.
Ronde is in to action figures, transformers, GI Joes. 
AJ still loves his Cars and sports stuff. They are so opposite but I'm glad that I get the best of both worlds. After presents, we all got dressed and went to our friend's Arycca and Trevor's house for Christmas dinner. Her mother was in town so it was nice to meet her. The Chandler's came over as well and we all ate, had a drink, and played cards. The food was wonderful! I couldn't stop eating. I'm really going to have to start working out to the 30 Day Shred! I hope everyone else had a great Christmas!
This picture is so beautiful of the beach and the waves.
This was a huge wave. It was in the middle of crashing so it looks like a lot of spray. Andre said he thought it was about 30 feet. My mom said that she saw on the news that there were reports of 50 foot waves!
