Christmas 2010!!

Well I know Christmas was well more than a few weeks ago, but after our trip to Iowa along with some sickness I am just getting to posting about it now.

We actually had Christmas in FL a few days before we left for IA.  A little different having Christmas when it was warm out but the kids still had a blast.  Then on the Dec 22 we made our way to IA to spend Christmas with my side of the family!  SInce living in Germany we haven't been to a Smith Christmas in 3 years so this was sorta new for the kids. They kept on telling me that there were lots of people, well yes there were, abotu 50 or so and that is just our immediate family.  The kids had a blast especially playing with all their cousins.

Here are some pictures of our "quiet" Christmas in FL.  I love Emma's face in the pictures, she is so excited when someone else is opening up their present.





























Now here are some pictures of the not so quiet Christmas in Iowa.
