Christmas 2010

Christmas to me is just not Christmas Eve, or Christmas day. It begins about the day after Thanksgiving, when the decorations go up. I love all of the parties, celebrations and get togethers. Here are just a few pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, I didn't get many pictures, but more enjoyed the day. Sometimes trying to get that perfect picture takes away from the celebrations.
