We had an especially good Christmas holiday this year. It feels like we've been racing ahead since Thanksgiving. Last week was our time in Modesto at Shannon's while Jason, Kel, Naia and Gabriel were in California. As is typical of me, I took very few pictures, but I'll share the ones I have. I was too lazy to consider what order I was uploading and we will start with Christmas day and work our way back.
Kiera going through her gifts after the unwrapping was done.
Me opening the mysteriously large gift Shannon delivered a couple weeks ago. Sometimes it can be difficult to buy a gift that although you know is perfect, well the expensive kitchen trash can...really? YES!
Real UGG Boots!
A couple years ago Kiera bought some really fun fabrics at Road To California. Most of the blocks were constructed and she had the layout figured out and we stacked the blocks in order last time we put them away. I finished it for her and backed it with a fun cupcake print. She was completely surprised and impressed how sneaky I was.
Christmas Eve after returning from Catron's Kiera opened gifts sent by her mom.
Back at Shannon's earlier in the week. We attempted to get all four grandkids into a photo. Allyson, 3, Gabriel 2, Naia almost 4 and Jenna 6.
Gabriel and Jason playing with the ever popular train set.
Jenna and Kiera finger painting, or was that nose painting?
How that started.
Jenna and Naia having fun constructing the graham cracker (sort of like gingerbread) houses. Every bit as edible as the real thing.
Kiera giving Naia one of her famous hair styles.
This year's edition of my north pole village.
The Ward family comes to dinner a few days before our trip to Modesto.
And that's it, that's what I have to show for myself for Christmas 2010. I can't help but think that it just gets better and better.
