We were so lucky this year to have lots of family and friends close for Christmas. My parents came over from Twin, as did my grandparents on Mom's side. Papa Jerry and Pam joined us for dinner, as well as Pam's youngest son, Justin. We missed my sisters and their families, Grandma Barbi and Gavin's sisters and their families, but it was great to have the rest of the family here.
Great-Grandpa Rice took some time-out to read Brighton her new Sasafras Tee book.
And Max enjoyed playing the new Wii that Santa brought the kids. Finally, video games that get you up off your rear-end and provide some physical activity. We have had a ball learning how to play all the games (including a wonderful dance game that Mom and Dad bought us).



Here they are, ladies and gentlemen, the Murphy kids with the wonderful gifts SANTA brought this year. Bella was lucky enough to receive an American Girl bed for her doll and a beautiful robe (Nikki's matched). Brighton received a boy-girl set of Bitty Twins, whom she promptly named "Max and Bella." And Max received the ONLY thing he asked for this year, SPIKE the dinasaur that "rocks the floor." The kids must have been VERY good this year.
