In which I try my best to get a Christmas picture of my children at 11:30pm after opening presents. Not bad considering the circumstances!
Our Charlie-proofed Christmas tree.
We opened Christmas presents Christmas Eve before Midnight Mass, Christmas morning, and Christmas evening. Thanks to all for your generosity!
Here are some videos of the kids open presents for the grandparents:
A globe!
Peekaboo boxes-- Open!
Charlie can reach up and into drawers now... oh my. He was very very quiet and I came back find out why.
Here is Peter enjoying one of his Christmas gifts-- a mirror!
It snowed again!!
Lucy drew a picture of me and her eating cereal with poinsettias on the table. I just love it. We don't have any poinsettias so maybe this is a hint?
All in all, we had a great Christmas. We miss all of our family and friends "back home," and so enjoyed getting cards and packages. We've been celebrating the Christmas season with many little fun nights at home. We even went to a New Years Eve Party and actually stayed up until midnight!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!
