Christmas Day @ The Schrader Home

Well, the holidays have come and gone and the new year has arrived. I still have a hard time believing that it's 2009. I remember thinking that it was the greatest when I was counting down the ball for 2000. How time flys when your having fun. Speaking of fun... Christmas this year was wonderful in the Schrader household and I thought that some of you might want to see how everything went so here are a few pictures to browse through...

Ethan, as most of you know just loves trains. He's absolutely crazy about anything to do with trains... especially if their blue and named Thomas! This year Grandma Linda spoiled our family with a special train to go around our tree. We played with it for a couple of weeks before Christmas came because we received it when Grandma came for Thanksgiving. So you would think that the shock factor would have faded. Oh no... He was just as excited to see it Christmas morning as any other day (of course Mommy put it away for a couple of days before the big day came). It was hard to get him to open any presents because all he wanted to do was play with his beloved train. Eventually the excitement died down and he got into the presents...



It's so hard to get good pictures with both of them smiling at the same time and I found that it's even harder to do it Christmas morning.


Ethan is so lovie and his favorite thing to do is give his brother lovies. It's just the cutest thing ever!!!

This was Owen's first Christmas and he was so cute opening his presents. All he really wanted to do was put them in his mouth and suck on them. Of course that's all he wants to do with everything at this age. He's so cute.

This Christmas was really fun for Ethan because he's old enough now that he got what was going on with all of the festivities and he was way more into it this year.

I can't believe how big my little baby Owen is getting. And Ethan too. Man... they're gonna be heart breakers someday.

This year was so wonderful and I'm happy that you could share a part of it with us. I hope that you had a Great Holiday Season this year and a very Happy New Year to you all.

With Much Love,

The Schrader Family

Christmas looks like it was a blast at your house! The boys are so cute together in their matching p.j.'s. Wow, Owen is starting to look so much like his own person! It's crazy how they look so different as they get older. Anyway, we send our love . . .
