Seeing Christmas through the eyes of a child is amazing...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...and the Fulop family is ready for the big day! :)

Auntie and Hunter's trip to see "The Grinch" :)...this is before the power went out :(

Waiting in line to see Santa...photo courtesy of Auntie :)

   

  

Skyler the black-nosed reindeer??

She'll do just about anything for a treat! :)

  PaPa and Hunter getting ready for the Mechanicsville Christmas parade!

 Annual tradition for us all...with Dadda and Hunter in the prime seats for candy catching! :)

Note to self - not afraid of clowns... 

A favorite celebrity...he was almost as excited to see Ronald as he was to see Santa! 

And there is the big man in the red suit... 

Auntie and Scott planned a tacky light tour for us...complete with a fancy van to be escorted around in and the best driver (Scott)! :) 

Dadda had a little luck out in the woods! :) 

Santa came by on the firetruck to see us! 

So thankful to our fire department for doing this each year! 

 Auntie's house for Christmas Eve :)

                                      

What a surprise!  Santa dropped off a present on the front porch, rang the doorbell and ran!  What a lucky boy Hunter is! :) 

  imagine that...Hunter's favorite thing...PAJAMAS!!

  

a little bit excited, I would say!! :) 

No Christmas Eve would be complete without a little Charlie Brown's Christmas :)

My two men, my loves, consumers of my heart, my world <3 nbsp="nbsp" p="p">

Christmas morning at our house!!

 Dadda scratching some lotto tickets that Santa left in his stocking!

  I interviewed Hunter, asking him why he loved each one of his family members...then, I took all the reasons and wrote them around the edge of a bowl, and in the center of the bowl, wrote I love _________ because... ~ Everyone loved them and were so excited to read some of Hunter's reasons that he loves them!

 Silly boy loves his hoodie towels...and he especially loves the one Auntie got him...Spider Man!! :)

 Opening Santa's presents in the Ho Ho Ho wrapping paper :)

 

Playing with his super cool, super smart, new robot...too funny!! :)

 Dadda holding one of my gifts...my DSLR camera!!  I was so excited to get this awesome gift...he gave it to me early and wrapped up the box so I would still have presents to open on Christmas day! :)  Can't wait to take an introductory "getting to know your DSLR camera" class with Auntie in a few weeks! :)  

No event is complete without lots of great food...hope no one is dieting on Christmas morning! :)

Who invited Spider Man?? :)

 Heather in her Tiffany blue scarf made by Gram! :)

  

Hunter got a Redskins bike helmet from Gram and Pap Pap!  So awesome!! :)

Rock a bye baby...not so much a baby anymore... :(

Hunter will never see a Nintendo in his lifetime, but he still knew exactly which buttons to push - such a little techy, just like his Mommy! :)

  Awesome canvas print from Auntie of our favorite family photo! :)

Smooches <3 p="p">

Gram loved her Adele CD's :) 

More jammies for Hunter...we can never have enough...since he LIVES in them!! :) 

Dadda and Hunter playing with his new Hot Wheels track...so fun!!  

 

Hunter got a visit from two of his favorite gals...our neighbors and great friends, Kaki and Molly came over to see him Christmas night...we all played his new game, Headbanz, which was lots of fun for everyone! :)

 

Another Christmas has come and gone...we are so blessed to have such a wonderful family to spend such a special day with...our hearts go out to the parents and families that had their children taken from them in the recent events at Sandy Hook...it is so unfair that their special moments and their opportunities to see Christmas through the eyes of their child were stolen from them...God bless them and give them the strength that they need to go on...

A blogger that I follow "doodled" this picture in memory of the lives that were left...I thought it was beautiful, so I wanted to share it with you all...
