Christmas: Family, Food, and Presents

   I had planned on doing a BlogCast, but as that hasn't happened yet, I'll just display my many random photos from Christmas at my grandparent's house!

   I awoke at 7:15, and after our traditional reading of Jesus' birth from the Bible (my brother did a great job again this year!), we started opening presents. The only thing I asked for this year was Just Dance 3 - and I got it :D I do not suggest playing this game for an hour before church. Sweaty is not "in" this year. After a short church service (I played piano during worship!), we gathered up some presents and drove to my grandparents house. This drive was really just doing a U-turn from our driveway to my grandparent's, which is right next to ours.

   I played Just Dance 3, we made some punch and snacked until dinner. Prime rib, mashed potatoes, cole slaw, and the works, more Just Dance 3, and present opening.

 My sister and I received MukLuks. She has the cookie monster ones, I have the... argyle Thanksgiving ones..

Very Christmassy looking, right?

 My very sad attempt at some bokeh shots :P

A big tree for their big house.

This is my cousin Calvin. Isn't he the cutest thing you've ever seen?

 Some jewelry for moi.

Calvin is the only child I know who is excited to get Christmas socks.

I am very jealous of this kid's penguin hat. Very jealous.

 "Cheese, Gromit!"

A new dollie for Liv

 I'm not entirely sure what Great Grandpa got, but I think he liked it!

A Lightening McQueen shirt for Calvin!

 New book for Grandpa!

Calvin just started grabbing all the books and holding onto them. He was excited.

 A camera. Let me tell you, within 10 minutes of opening the box, Calvin had taken over 50 pictures.

Maddy and my aunt playing Just Dance 3!

And a final shot of Calvin chasing Liv :)

   Have a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
