Christmas morning

The view of the tree and presents before anyone dove in.

Emma's stash!!! (just kidding-the 4 presents for Sterling and I are in there also!)

The look on Emma's face when she got her kitchen.

Emma playing with her kitchen while the rest of us opened presents.

The rest of us.
Emily looking at her wedding book (all she got for christmas this year was a wedding. And thats Adam next to her, he kept the room clean)

Daddy putting Emma's toys together.

This is what we saw most of the morning. When she wasnt playing with her kitchen she would run around and squish her face up to the glass and make piggy face.

Christmas 2009

WOW!!!! christmas was crazy this year. I worked deep nights christmas eve and christmas day and then sat. and sun. were my regular weekend to work. Lets just say i was extremely tired but once the paycheck comes i wont even remember how tired i was.

I went to download the christmas pictures from the camera to the computer and this lovely picture pulled up. I will call it self portrait.

Emma is just so stinkin' cute with her cans of veggies. They are all over my house all the time, but hey she is learning good eating habits, right??

Pictures with Santa did go so well. I tried so hard to prep her. We went and had lunch with santa. i didnt make her sit on his lap. we just went up and sat next to him. so she could see him and that he isnt scary. (that is her "say cheese" face not a scary face)
When we did actually go see santa she did so well. she kept pointing at him and saying Santa, but then when it was time to sit on his lap she wanted nothing to do with him and screamed bloody murder. thus no pictures.

Emma did love christmas trees this year and would always point and say "light" when she say a christmas tree. so i decided to just take some pictures with a tree to document christmas 2009.

Couponing

PREFACE
Couponing has become an obsession for me. It is a game. How much can i get for how little? Christmas would not be happening at the Wagner household if it was not for couponing this last year.

I need to give some serious "thank you's" to my wonderful neighbors (who i know read this and why i am posting this)

WHY I AM POSTING
so I am at work as I am writing this. Just sitting here waiting for labels to print so i can make some IV's. So I sit at my computer and start reading some blogs.

I have one blog that i totally blog stalk. it is a friend/roommate (i think) of one of my really good friends so i dont feel that bad. but she just blogged about

...how she does not care about the prices of milk or fruit at the grocery store....


I literally had a heart attack!!!! I think I officialy have an obsession

this is a little old

This is at my mom's house but this is Emma's new past time!!

What is up with today??

First, I woke up to snow....I know its Dec. 2nd but really its Texas!!! (for all you vegas foke...this only lasted about 1 hr.)

Second, for all of you that dont know I have become a serious couponer. i dont do anything unless i have a coupon...i really have saved alot of money. I turned around from sitting at the computer and apparently my couponing/add brousing has passed on to other people in my family.
