Merry Christmas!
We had a great Christmas at the Porter house this year. The kids are at such fun ages. I loved watching each of them enjoy Christmas morning.

Jed loved his presents this year. He was really excited for Christmas morning. He is still way into Star Wars and as you can see, he's turned into a clone trooper. He takes his costume off to sleep and sometimes to play the Wii, but mostly he just runs around with his buddies playing Star Wars.
Katie had a great suprise from Santa this year. She got an American Girl doll. She was so excited when she saw her. She immediately said, "Mom, I think Annie is a good name. What do you think?" I of course loved it. So Annie became the newest member of the family. She shows up at every meal and is always buckled in a seat belt in the car. She also hasn't missed a night sleeping in Kate's bed. They have become best friends!
Blake was so cute this year. He said the funniest things. The first present he opened was a toy vacuum. He opened the gift and saw what was inside and said... "Holy Moly!" It was so cute! We all laughed about it. He loved his Elmo Chair and his "bike" as well.

We had a wonderful time visiting family and spending the holiday with those we love most! Merry Christmas everyone!
