Christmas: Celebration #3 - Christmas Day

Oh my!! What did Santa bring? A workbench for Colton (he LOVES his tools) and a "Pliano" (as Kyla calls it)!! Colton has been "fixing" everything in sight and Kyla has come up with more and more songs on the "pliano".
YEAH!!!



And the stockings!!



Kyla loves those Hallmark cards that play music. We got her one that sings, "Frosty the Snowman." She was so excited when she opened it! She exclaimed, "I know this song!" And then proceeded to sing along with the card.

Kyla loves to play with Mommies necklace so we thought she should have one of her own. It's a silver heart with her name engraved on it, along with a little gold cross.






And Daddy got a new camera!


It was so fun to watch the kids open their gifts. They took turns helping each other open all the packages.





A princess book from Uncle Erik and Aunt Kate! I LOVE princess stuff!!





OOOH!! A truck book from Uncle Erik and Aunt Kate.



"Merry Christmas!"




Later that day...
Celebration #3




We had the grandparents over for dinner. Usually Uncle Dan, Aunt Sara and the kids join us, but Aunt Sara was on call for Christmas so they couldn't come over. We had a great time. The kids were loaded up on sugar and ran around like crazy people. Colton couldn't seem to stay away from the sweets. We enjoyed a stuffed pork loin, asparagus, honey ginger carrots, bacon ranch potatoes, and rolls. And for dessert, Cherry berries on a cloud. Nummy! Then we all gathered in the living room, wine in hand to open our gifts.




Colton wants to play with his new car so badly, he walks it over to Grandma for help getting it out of the package. Good luck with that one, Grandma!




Poor Abby just wanted a nice soft place to lie down. She finally finds an unoccupied place on the floor and rests her tired head on Grandma's foot. Such a princess.




"MOM!! MY OWN 'PUTER!"





And for Dad, an Electric Fillet Knife! Let's see, he and his father just got back from their annual Father and Son fishing trip up north. Something tells me there's a story here...
