Whew! Is it time to relax yet?

I love Christmas time, but, wow, it is just so busy! I have hardly even had a chance to download any of my pictures from Christmas, let alone post any lol. We had a wonderful Christmas. I think the kids got mostly what they wanted and some things they didn't know they wanted, but loved. Larson got a skateboard (along with some Ryan Sheckler and Tony Hawk clothes to complete his look!), a FUN toy called Snap Circuits (he actually made an FM radio, a working fan and a light from this!), Tony Hawk Ride for the Wii, a new camera and so much more. Raisa got the usual stuff like clothes and shoes, plus a few surprises like an ipod touch (which we also gave Kevin--those things are cool--I think I may get Larson and I one too!!).
Me, I got a VIOLIN! I used to play in an orchestra MANY years ago. I am going to take some lessons from a lady in Bartlesville who plays in the Bartlesville Symphony. I am SUPER excited about that!
Well, now time for some R&R--I have been trying to plan a summer vacation these last few days. Had our mind pretty much made up to spend it at Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas, but they more we have talked about it, we have decided that it is too "theme park". We loved Maui when we went, it was so relaxing yet fun. So, right now I am looking into the Cayman Islands (warmer water, great snorkeling!). Larson thinks we should go to Fiji. I think he has seen the Truman Show one too many times haha!
We shall see!
Here are a couple of photos from Christmas I grabbed real quick off my computer!
Happy New Year!
