Santa's coming tonight!!!

On Christmas Eve we went out to dinner with family. Afterwards we went to my Aunts house to open presents. We had our cousin Zack there with us which was awesome. We knew he couldn't spend Christmas day with us....(That's why I HATE Divorce) so we made the best of what we had! Seeing Madison and Zack playing together is too much fun! They are both so animated and loving.

The UPS man is here!!!

I can't tell you how excited I get when I come home and there is a package at the door. So it doesn't shock me that my daughter feels the same way! Madisons Grandma, Grandpa and Auntie Amanda sent her presents early. She was so happy!

Newport Beach Boat Parade

This was our second year going to the boat parade. We ate dinner at the Rusty Pelican and had great seats to watch the boats pass by. The way the people decorate these boats were amazing. Madison had a great time watching but her favorite part was the steak and lobster!!

Christmas with the Browns

Every year even before I was born the Duff/Browns would get together on Christmas Eve. I have so many memories from those nights it's scary! Now that 1/2 of the family moved to Vegas we celebrate the week prior to Christmas. For a while there all of us kids would be begging to open presents...now that we are all grown up , it's OUR kids asking! It's amazing to see the new generation of grandkids opening gifts and playing together. Madison was overwhelmed to say the least but her favorite gift of the night was the Star Tours mask and light saber haha. Thanks aunt Bee...I'm sure that sword will be put away pretty soon. After dinner and gifts we played Bingo! It was so much fun!!

Duff/Paul Christmas

Every year our two Families get together for Christmas. The family is growing so it was so much fun this year! Between Madison and Mackenna we laughed the whole night. We are so lucky to have such amazing friends.

Madison's First Grade Performance

My daughter asked for a speaking part in her school play....MYYYY Daughter!! Can you believe it! I would have NEVER done that! :) I was so proud of her. I forgot my good lense at home so the video is much better than these pictures. Great Job Madison!
