A couple of Glee moments

Both J & C's Christmas programs were a hoot... however, I pay the price for not being a gnarly mega-cam-tripod-outofmyway-front row mom and have shoddy video proof that we were there and that they sang, ages 4 and 10.5... this is the best of the bunch. Still hillarious. Also one of the only clips that C doesn't have his hands in his pants or finger up his nose. HA!

Ho-ho-holiday happs

Sending off 2010 with some great memories

Happy Birthday, Townsend and Poppi

Most played with toy from Santa, and keeping her believing, since there's no way on Earth that I would ever buy Subway for them... ewe.
Christmas Eve at Nana and Poppi's.. playing trains (nice ears)
Possibly the cutest Christmas gift.. one day, while Jbird and I were wrapping gifts, C grabbed these empty gift wrap tubes and was using them (natch) as swords.. He then decided this was the perfect gift for Townsend.. wrapped and taped them up himself and put them under the tree..He toted them to Christmas Eve SO proud and anxious for T to open them.
Homey the elf, another year.. another long nap needed after the loud Heit family household...
One of the club in his 'nuggie' that he's "always wanted" from his girlfriend and her little bro

Hanging out with the festive Greens.

Ho Ho Ho

J, fresh out of the pool after graduating her swim program that she's been in since she was 4.5, decided we should go to breakfast... well, Santa had no line, and I need my awkard pic.. sooo.. here it is. Ha. C had no issues yelling from the doorway of Santa's cottage "I want a Transformer, Merry Christmas!!" but not a real fan of the lap-sitting.

Jingle all the way..

C loved joining in Nana's classroom's Christmas caroling through the Village... Highlights were cookie pit-stop and mud puddle on route.

And it all flew by....

the new bike gang of Oceanside...



join the club, poppi. haaaa
of course it's more fun to try out someone ELSE's toys... Townsend's new coupe


Christmas in the rearview...this year, everyone showed their homemade prowess, even dad with the most awesome ramp ever..

Jingle Bob

Jadyn had a blast at her "first concert," as she called the little private Bob Schneider show we went to at Bernardo Winery with the Roses. Fun, carriage rides and, as the venue suggests, wine were enjoyed by all.. well, ok, kids had kettle korn and koko...and Campbell wouldn't go anywhere near Santa.



THRILLED to get an autograph and "backstage" Emma, Jake, Jeanette and Jbird with Bob!

Santa, please bring me back my hair

Even Elmo getting in on the act could not win Campbell over. Poor guy. Mean mom. (disclaimer, the hair had nothing to do with this Santa experience... I don't want to talk about Justin's botched father-son haircuts... I feel sick to my stomach and cried myself to sleep about it....I know, it's only hair... and the good news is, Campbell thinks it's cool.)

Jingle Boy

Campbell loved Christmas caroling with the big kids from Nana's preschool class through the Village...and stopping for a cider break... .still jingling around here!!

Deck the halls with snow and fritos

an awesome flocked tree and fritos in (random) jammies... wow. look out trailer park..
