Merry Christmas to all

We all felt better on Christmas, (or so we thought) so we got up enjoyed a yummy breakfast and then the presents that Santa brought us.
Tori got her own desk for her bedroom, and her favorite part of the whole thing is the pink chair, so figure...
Abby had asked for a guitar, although she doesn't seem so happy here, she really did love. We couldn't figure out at first how to keep in on her head, so we put a ball cap on her, which seemed to work. Once we figured out how it really worked, no ball cap needed (picture later on that).

As I said last night I wasn't feeling so good, so all the gifts had no ribbons or bows, and I even just wrote on the paper who it was for and from. Sad but this year it was all I could do.

Even the dog received a little something to chew on, which she quickly enjoyed on the new carpet (I had to move her to the kitchen so the red juice didn't get every where.
The girls love to cook with me and they are forever getting messy, so this year each of them got a couple of aprons so that they can keep clean as they help. The hat was a nice added surprise and works well to complete the look...

Later in the day we went to my parents house to exchange gifts with other family. Auntie Theresa gave each of the kids a shirt she made herself. I guess Ty dying is back in style now.

Tori got a Tinker Bell phone and book from her cousin, which she now can't part with.
More mayhem and Abby with her new shirt from her Aunt.


Abby was playing outside today and it was just to much for her. She was feeling pretty bad by the end of the day. She feel asleep with Grandma reading a story to her and using her Neb. You will notice that she has on some fine dradel PJ's. When I bought them I had no idea what these where, but they were really cheep so I got them knowing they would be warm. Well they were a hit today, because who would expect me to put dradel PJ's on my kids??

Poor Abby was so tired she just crashed when we got her home too.


Here is what it looks like when the guitar is hooked up correctly.

It was a fun day, but unfortunately we ended up sharing our bug with several in the family and sent it home with many family members, which is too bad. We would never have gone to visit the family it we had known that would be the result.

Fun! Sorry you weren't all feeling super great though. That apron is darling - I love cute aprons.
