Christmas was good

Today was a good day. Santa ate the oreos and chocolate milk that L put out for him and left her a little note.

We opened our stockings before everyone arrived this morning. I got two WSU tshirts and a beautiful necklace.

Present unwrapping took 2 1/2 hours. It went well. Great grandpa took 10 minutes to open one gift and he was chastised for that. L's gifts from Santa included the infamous talking Dora doll, a Mickey Mouse clubhouse and friends, and Dora bowling. She also got a Hannah Montana guitar, tons of games and clothes.
Jeff had a sports Christmas. He received an electronic hockey game, a Cowboys clock and fleece blanket (made by my mom), a Steelers sweatshirt and a skateboard. The skateboard was a little more tricky than he had thought....it doesn't sit by itself.

My gift highlights included new scrapbook organization storage pieces, Batgirl comic, a panini grill, and two tickets to see Celine Dion next month. I am so excited about going!!!
We had a lovely dinner of ham, baked potatoes, green bean casserole, christmas salad, and peppermint cake. After everyone left, we took naps (and Jeff played his new Monopoly game for the Wii). Christmas is over for another year. I miss seeing everyone already.
