LOOK what santa bought me!!!

sam has really enjoyed this CHRISTmas! he loves everything about the holiday and i love that he understands the true meaning of CHRISTMAS. he had a pretty simple list this year....transformer (bumblebee) and a new belt with a BIG buckle (YES we have been living here too long) LOL! looks like santa had sam on his "good" list






stay tuned for future photos of "cowboy sam"..um...i mean, my son samuel, soon :)!

It's ALL about the shoes!!

so, i really wanted to come on here and fill you all in on how our CHRISTmas morning went, but...(BIG BUT), i just had to share, a little known secret about our dear princess....take a look.....


santa just so happened to know that princess and her faithfull knights (brothers) needed some new clothes. and since SANTA simply CANNOT get enough of gymboree ;) , he decided that is just what she needed. cute outfits, complete with shoes AND accessories.









BUT, as you can see here, princess gabi fell in LOVE...with the shoes!!! she has always had a secret "love affair" with her shoes, but OH MY GOODNESS, all doubts were put to rest this morning! she loved the clothes, but the shoes...THE SHOES made her gasp (YES, a full blown DRAMA queen gasp) the moment she laid eyes on them!!!!







each and every pair INSTANTLY went on her feet as she reached for the next gift, secretly PRAYING that it would contain an EVEN prettier pair. notice how she is wearing the yellow pair WHILE admiring the super cute green ANKLE strap, oh so stylish sandle ( i just KNOW this is excatly what is going through her precious little mind) LOL!!!









she was even lucky enough to recieve a cute pair of rain boots, WITH a matching raincoat AND purse....SHE WAS IN HEAVEN!!! :) :)


and yes, the rest of us had a WONDERFUL time too!!
