Christmas Crafts

Now that it’s an acceptable amount of time after Christmas, and everyone has gotten their gifts, I have decided to share my Christmas crafts (aka the stuff I made because I’m too cheap to actually buy gifts).

I actually forgot to take pictures of them all. There were 4 more name boards, and 7 more tutus, but I sent them out without photographing them. Oops. My bad.

Ciao for now!

Christmas at Camp Geiger

So, yesterday (Christmas Eve), I was up at four in the morning, packing up a diaper bag and a baby, and unrolling my the rag ties from my hair. We left at 6:40 a.m., and finally made it to Camp Geiger near 11.

I got to spend Christmas with my Marine!!!

And Matheson got his Daddy for his first Christmas.

I love my boys to death and beyond. :]

It was not the Christmas I had imagined. Not by a long shot. But it was absolutely perfect.

Ciao for now.

Someone Is Spoiled...

And that someone is the husband. Basically, anything he wants, I let him get. I'm too nice.

For Christmas, he got a Halo Reach edition Xbox 360, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Dead Space, World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, two new books, a new hat, some stickers for his car, and about $500 dollars worth of new clothes. Yup. He is spoiled. :D

But I guess I'm spoiled, too. He got me the first four Ultimate Editions of the Harry Potter movies, and a new necklace.

See? It's absolutely the one I wanted, too. Apparently, he got it for me before I even showed him it. That's how well he knows me. My man sure is amazing. :D

We have already done the Christmas gift exchange, since we are not sure if he will be home (his C.O. is trying to extend his R.A.), and it wasn't even a traditional "sit down as a family and pass the gifts around" type thing. Basically, when we decided to give them, we gave them. So it's been spread out over the last three weeks.

Little Bear even has most of his presents, but there are some that I won't let him have till Christmas, cuz I do want him to be able to open something (yeah, he is only 4 months, but I don't care. Ha).

Taylor and Matheson sure have bonded. I'm so happy. I was honestly worried, but I don't know why. They are so adorable together:

I love my Devil Dogs....

I'm such a sap. Lol.

Well, I'm off.

Ciao for now!!
