Christmas Day


We decided at the last minute to stay at my moms house for Christmas Eve because of a bad snow storm that was on its way. I had to send Santa a quick email so he would know where to find Claire- and he got it just in time!

Last year Claire was sick for Christmas and this year she woke up with a swollen left eye, we have no clue what happened. But by the afternoon it had cleared up and was back to normal.

Abby and Brenna picked out this present for Jason all by themselves... a can of the squeeze cheese, Jason loves it and the girls saw it in the store and knew Jason would love it. Thanks chicas!

Claire had fun opening all her presents despite not seeing very well with a half shut eye...I think her favorite present was this Princess ('rella) blanket. She would not let go of it
She would just lay on the floor and cover herself with it, or climb on someones lap and just snuggle for a little bit

This is the last picture I took on Christmas Day, I don't know why I didn't get my camera out again.

After presents we had a delicious breakfast of biscuits and gravy (dad's favorite!) and some sweet cinnamon bread. Then it was time to get ready and go to Aunth RuthAnn's for dinner and the cousins gift exchange. It was a great Christmas

I'm so glad her cyclopse eye went away... it was strange, but she didn't seem phased by it! I'm glad you guys came down and stayed with us- it made Christmas even more fun! Glad Jay likes his non-refrigerated cheese too... sick-o!

Christmas with the Pirate-Claire was fun! It didn't seem to effect her at all. Loved that her best gift with the cheapest... love it!
I forgot to take any pictures all day - so you did good.

The blanket looks super soft and warm...no wonder why she wouldn't let it go! What a fun Christmas!

Looks like you had a fun Christmas. It was fun to hear Sandie's news and get together Christmas Eve for breakfast. It's so nice we all live in the same area.
