Let's open some presents

Before I post pictures of all our snow outside, I figured I'd post a few of Christmas Eve/Morning present opening.

Since we traditionally celebrate Christmas Eve with Jim's family, the kids each picked out a couple of presents from Grandma and Paw Paw to open on Christmas Eve here.


Alex chose one of his biggest presents - a jungle adventure set with lots of cool animals and parts for it.


Alex shows off the best way to display your jungle adventure set snake.


Grace opted to chose one of her smallest gifts - glasses for her American Girl dolls.


Here she is showing off her Chrissa doll in both new glasses and new holiday outfit. Now it really is a little mini-me doll for her. Grandma did a great job of picking out the frames that most closely resemble Grace's own glasses.


Just two photos to show of Christmas Day gifts, both because in all the excitement it is hard to stop and take pictures, and our light in the morning in the living room isn't that great.



Alex opens his Nintendo DS from Santa. Now other than Eva he won't be the only cousin at Cousin Camp without one.


Grace opens her Me-Mo Ugly Doll from Santa. This gift was very special in that it is an Ugly Doll that Grace designed herself and put down on her letter to Santa, because since it doesn't really exist to purchase in a store only Santa could get it for her. And Santa did just that - had an elf make a special Ugly Doll just for Grace. Since she reads my blog she will probably comment on here how wonderful it is!
