Here's a quick wrap-up of the days events. This was the scene after we all opened presents. Calvin was instructed not to get out of bed until at least 6:30 am. (he's always the early riser on Christmas morning). Unfortunately, he was right on time. The rest of us followed, with Mason being the last out of bed at 7:30.
Calvin methodically went through all of his presents, using each for several minutes before moving on to the next one. This is his new ukulele, which he is already able to play.
This show doesn't completely show Mason's day, but it's my favorite shot of the day. He's wearing his new hat (like the one singer Jason Mraz wears) along with his new shirt. I think his #1 gift was his new camera. Should he start a blog of his own?
Finally, an evening of great conversation, food & drink, with family and friends. Our neighbors came by for our 2nd annual Christmas dinner. This is starting to become a tradition!For those who are interested in the weather here, it's still snowing. At 10 this morning we had 19 inches on the ground from this storm. I'm sure we've added a few more today. Oh. And the snowblower broke. The end.
The hat looks great - glad it was a good fit. Here, a very messy mix of snow, rain, and sleet since Wednesday night. I was awakened throughout the night last night by ice being pelted against the house. Either that or Santa's reindeer were making an awful lot of noise.
