Yes, I am blogging this a little late. Christmas 2011 in 2012. Oh well. Life happens. It was a fabulous holiday season for the Gunnell family, and we had tons of fun! Here is the proof of our happy holidays -- with lots of photos!
STAR PERFORMERS
 |
| Davis was an adorable elf for his preschool Christmas program! |
 |
| Macie wow-ed us with her flexibility in ballet class |
VISITING WITH SANTA
We headed to the Riverwoods to meet Santa - and he looked like the real deal! It was cold, but fun to take the whole family to meet St. Nick. What did the kids ask for?
 |
| Danny told Santa "Power Rangers!" -- luckily, Santa delivered! |
 |
| Davis asked for a "rock collection." We love this little rock-n-roller! |
 |
| Reid was dying for a big basketball hoop. Santa brought golf clubs to our little sport instead... because Grammie and Pops had already taken care of the awesome new hoop! |
 |
| At first, Macie wanted "a surprise." But when she sat on Santa's lap, she decided that she wanted some new snow skis. She's already tried them out now -- and she makes a super cute snow bunny! |
 |
| How can you not smile when Santa is around?! |
 |
| I love my Danny-boys! |
FESTIVE FUN
 |
| We all enjoyed a free skate day at Seven Peaks Ice Arena. Reid is an AWESOME skater! |
 |
| Ginderbread houses were fun, as always. We had to use lots of green candies and frosting (Danny J's favorite color) to decorate Danny's baby house! |
 |
| Davis made his all by himself -- and it turned out awesome! |
 |
| Reid got fancy with the icing -- and with his funny face! |
CHRISTMAS MORNING
We woke up early (we had to be at church at 9 AM), watched the kids rush downstairs, and enjoyed opening our stockings and playing with Santa's gifts. It was a fun (and quick) Christmas morning as we rushed to get ready for church!
 |
| Merry Christmas! It was a happy morning! |
 |
| Santa delivered -- Power Ranger fighting swords and masks! |
 |
| Macie smiles as she opens her stocking |
 |
| Reid with the new clubs! He's had some lessons from Dad now, and he's pretty good for a 6 year old... |
 |
| Watch out! Danny J is out to kill the "nighloks" (the bad guys in Power Rangers). |
 |
| After church, Davis was ready to dig in and open up all the presents we'd left at home! |
We had a Very Merry Christmas, and felt so blessed this holiday season!
