We gathered the cookies.
Placed the Santa key on the door.
And waved goodbye to Elf on the Shelf.
In the morning there were gifts, delicious food, and family.
My heart was full.
We danced.
We sang.
And we laughed.
We squealed and tickled.
Relaxed and snacked.
And we poked fun.
We hugged.
We exchanged beautiful gifts.
Drank delicious drinks.
And got loud (okay maybe just me).
We loved her up!



















What a gorgeous Christmas you’ve had! (and ooh, peacock ornament!)
That peacock ornament was my FAVOURITE gift!
Peacock feathers on the tree! Holla!
I think she might eat your head in that one photo.
My mom got me that!
It was my favourite gift.
Looks like a stunning day!
xo
It really was.
But I’m starting to think your eight days of magic are pretty awesome.
Looks like a good Christmas! Love her lovin’ on the Pillow Pet – so adorable!
She wanted that pillow pet so badly. Every trip to the mall she would run for it.
My parents got it for her and she’s in heaven.
Looks like a great day!
It was a fantastic day.
She didn’t quite understand what we were doing yet but she was fun.
That little cup and saucer are too cute! Glad you had a wonderful day, my friend.
They were an after Christmas deal last year at Winners!
This was the first year we used them.
I love the photo of her and Santa at the mic.
Sounds perfect!!
You are so right!
I sure loved seeing you both yesterday!!! Xoxo
We loved seeing you!
Love the photos. Looks like you had a perfectly magical Christmas, which totally makes me smile.
She was fun this year. She didn’t quite understand the Santa part or why we were opening gifts but she was fun!
Every single picture made me want to spend the holiday with you!!! What a gorgeous Christmas you had my friend…I can hear the giggles!
Thank you Kir.
She’s at a wonderful stage right now and I’m loving every single second of her.
Looks like you had a lovely Christmas!!! Don’t you just adore those baby lovies? She is so cute!!
I can’t get enough of the stage she’s in right now.
I’m loving it.
Fill that soul up right to the brim and let it spill on over…just don’t spill it on my new winter coat…I love my new coat…and those smiles.
Love.
You got a new winter coat?
Fer reals?
I asked for one.
I got a purple sweater that makes me look like swollen grape.
So I took it back and bought my own winter coat.
She is quite lovable! I can see that from here.
Give her a big smooch from me.
m.
She’s totally loveable…. and is ramming her shopping cart, with baby in it, into the wall right now.
Awesome.
Aw, bye bye Elf on the Shelf! Hope I’ll see you again next year. Stay away from Barbie, will ya?
What a lovely Christmas day you and your family had, Leighann. Look at the smile on that little girl’s face! Precious, peacock mama! lol
She keeps asking where elf is.
She doesn’t understand why he’s not hiding somewhere every morning.
I think next year it will be harder for her to part with him.
She has the cutest little smile!
Thank you!
I have to agree
I’m glad you all had a wonderful Christmas. Give little S a big hug for me.
She saw your picture and said, Who’s that?
I said “Leigh Ann, mommy’s friend.” and she said your name over and over and over saying friend.
lol
Those pictures really captured your daughter’s excitement. That’s what makes Christmas as a parent. Happy New Year.
Thank you!
Happy New Year to you too!
I hate when Christmas is over.
me too!
beauty!! Merry Christmas Leighann!
Hope you had a fantastic time!
Also?
I’m sure you weren’t that loud.
Sounds like a perfect Christmas to me. Happy New year coming L !!
Thank you Stasha!
Hope 2012 is a great year for you

Same to you!
Hope 2012 is a great year!
