The Fipps Family: 2005

Friday, December 30, 2005

We took this picture for Daddy's birthday present! We wrapped it and put it on the wall to see if he would find it- but we had to give him clues before he noticed! Eva looks a little like a boy with a baseball outfit on... but I told her not to worry... she has a pink Yankee outfit for the spring! It was the first outfit she owned--before we even knew she was a girl! ( Daddy had a feeling she would be.)

Eva and Mommy

Isn't she cute in her little pink snowsuit! She actually likes to wear it! ( so far she doesn't scream about it! ) We were just getting home from Christmas dinner at Jeremy and Jill's house...wide awake at 9 PM!

Christmas PJs

Santa brings our PJs every Christmas Eve ( I don't know how he sneaks them in! ) This year he had a little help sewing from an elf named Colleen. It's such a coincidence that the elf's name is the same as Grandma's!!

Cute Eva!

Wearing her Christmas PJs.

All the presents!

I think Santa dumped his whole bag at our house! Not to mention Papa, Nana, Grandma Colleen and Papa Walt! This photo was at 7 AM-- they actually woke up at 5 AM or so, but we held them off for a while ( stockings take a while too- Santa wraps everything very tightly!! At least to buy time to make coffee!! )

The boys and their toys

These are the presents that the boys bought for each other at the mall with Daddy. They each had their $20 allowance (from the month) and they bought everyone in the family a gift. They went in together to buy Dad a handheld poker game ( and used a coupon! - I'm trying to teach them how to make the most of their money! ) They bought me gloves, a scarf and a hat, and they each bought Eva an outfit. They did a great job with the money they had.
