Spoiled!

If I were to take a picture of every present these kids got, it would take up the whole page! Here are some highlights:

Peyton was showered with books and puzzles. I am so glad too, because he really needed some new books to add to his collection!

Chloe received outfits and fun toys. Here she is getting a glow seahorse (kinda like the glow worm) from Mom and Dad.

Linda (Troy's Mom) got pictures from the kids.

You can barely make them out, but these are plaques that I made myself. They have decorative paper modpodged behind the pictures and they are accented with ribbon.

She also got a large framed picture of the kids.

Rachel got a new dress and an overcoat.

Naoko was excited about her new griddle, pancake mix, hot cocoa mix and all the stuff needed to cook them up; spatula, measuring cups, wisk, etc.

I got some awesome p.j.'s, a few movies (The Holiday and the newest Harry Potter addition) a gift card to Barnes and Noble and one for Amazon for my Kindle (thanks Troy!) and some much needed new knives!

Jason loved his new zip up hoodie from Laura.

Chloe got an awesome bear from her Mimzy and Sir Grandpa in Indonesia. This soft plush bear sings songs, reads stories and plays games and it's all directed by Chloe! She pushes its paws or feet to tell it what she wants to do next and then away it goes!

She loves it! We played one song where the bear sings 'Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes' in English then does it in Japanese and also an African version too!

They also sent her this Twilight Turtle which is really neat. It projects stars all over her room at night so that it's not so dark in her room. It changes colors too. I know we'll be using this one every evening!

Troy got some new shoes, some LSU shirts, a Saints shirt, a Superman cell phone cover and some treats. He also got a very generous gift from my Mom and Dad of a gift card to Jos. A. Banks so he could buy some new shoes and work attire.

Peyton got an Elmo Live from Troy and I that sings and tells jokes and stories. It was a huge hit; in fact I hear Elmo talking in the background right now! :-)

"I wuv you Elmo." Peyton said after he opened it. He even gave Elmo a hug!
