AUNTIE ROCKS!!!!

Do you remember when you were a kid...there was always your "favorite" gift of Christmas? The gift that you just can't put down? The gift that you just NEED to take with you everywhere? The gift that if it ran out of batteries you would just scream and yell until they give you new ones?
I remember growing up with my two sisters and I have memories of some things that we just enjoyed so much that our Christmas was marked for life:)
For example, I remember getting a Holly Hobby Easy Bake oven. That was the Christmas that stands out for me, as well as the year I got the tape recorder (similiar to our kids getting an Ipod), I also remember my younger sister getting a pair of skates. She was very little and these skates had fur around the top of them...she went to bed with them around her neck that year not wanting to let them go. My older sister recieved a knitter thingy...I remember her wanting to use it and not knowing how...tooo funny. These are memories that will follow us through our lives into adulthood and always put a smile on our faces.
I believe this is what my sister did for my little girl.

Sarah and Mitchell were very excited about getting Guitar Hero for Christmas. They were so excited that first thing in the morning they decided to give it a try.
They played from morning until we left for lunch at 2'ish. But they BEGGED to take it to Nick's parents place so that they could play there! We no longer had lunch down, the two of them flew out of the room to hook up the wii. They played until 9'ish!!

The following morning we were getting ready for our ski trip up north, and behold...they decided they needed to have their fix!! lol But not only did they need their fix, they just couldn't go over night without having their fun.......

....so they begged to take it up north!! So we skied the day and as soon as we entered the hotel room...they began to play ....AGAIN!! Well...I just couldn't understand why they were soooo addicted.....

...so I gave it a whirl...and now I know...WHAT ALOT OF FUN!! Thank you so much Auntie for making our kids Christmas just that much more special:)
