{Christmas Eve}

We gather every Christmas Eve at my Grandma's house (GG) to celebrate with my Dad's side of the family. There is always plenty of food, laughs and gifts. Here are a bunch of my favorite pictures of our evening together.

Emma enjoying a nice fancy glass of Root Beer :)


GG rockin' her sock monkey slippers




My Aunt took a trip to China over the summer, and brought back beautiful gifts.
The girls love their new silky PJ's :)
Not just anyone can eat sugar cookies on chopsticks :)

Santa brought Rob everything he asked for....
which made us all a little nervous to be alone in a room with him!! :)


{Christmas Morning}

A few fun pictures of our Christmas Morning..



{Radabaugh Christmas}

I always look forward to Christmas at my Mom & Dad's. Their house is so pretty and festive at Christmas (and all the time, really). My parents never put any presents under the tree before Christmas. So every morning my sister and I would wake up and run out to the living room to find the tree overflowing with gifts. It is still my favorite memory of Christmas time. The tradition has lived on and my girls love it!!





Baby Boom arrives in 3 months...WooHoo!! :)


Maddie-cakes only wanted two things for Christmas: A pillow pet, and a Nintendo DS!
She only got a pillow pet...but she was still excited!! :)





Peace and Quiet...

Both of the girls received new personal DVD players for Christmas this year!! Now...these are only for long trips in the car (mom's rule!!!)! Guess who was the first one to break that rule?? Yep..yours truly!! Both of the girls were having a "rough" day last week. I was trying to get ready for one last Christmas celebration and didn't have time to play referee...
So out came the electronics! :)
Two rules: 1) You must stay in separate rooms
2) Your movie must be over 1 1/2 hrs. long!!


This was a punishment we ALL enjoyed!!! :)
Am I the only one that has days like these??? :)
