Christmas Day

We had a wonderful Christmas Day at home in the morning and with some great friends in the afternoon.

Here we are Christmas morning after opening stockings. Meghan looks a little sleepy here, but in all actuality she doesn't really liker her tutu :( (I on the other hand love it). That is a penguin sticking out of the middle - she got it from her teacher at school/daycare.


Here is Meghan and Jase with Meghan's kitchen. She played with it for 3 hours Christmas morning. Now that's a perfect present!


Here Jase is showing off his "shark" car (I got these when I was a kid from cereal boxes I think, but never opened them). Jase was in heaven!


Jase also got a huge set of lincoln logs (almost 300 pieces). The Dora couch and blanket are Meghan's so as to stop any fighting and not wanting to share Jase's Cars couch. Now, Meghan spends most of her time on the Cars couch and Jase on the Dora...


Jase showing off our hard work of building each building shown on the instructions... Then he knocked it all down 5 minutes later when the "horse" broke out of the fence.


The kids also got a couple sets of pj's (one on Christmas Eve of course), an outfit of clothes, some books, art things, and a little candy. Jase was also the proud recipient of 12 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures - thank you Craigslist!

We spent the afternoon sharing a delish meal with these Joneses (there's nothing better than hangin with Joneses - my Gramma was a Jones...). The kids played well, the women talked and referred the big kids with the little kids, the men talked computers and guns. A terrific way to end the day.

We enjoyed having you over. The biggest surprise was a few days later when Jason said we should actually have you over again. Now, to get an invitation from Jason to come over and socialize is like getting an invitation to the White House or maybe winning the lottery. Not that I'm saying he is all wonderful like those, just that it very rarely happens. :-)
