A quiet Christmas

We had a quiet Christmas around our house this year. We celebrated a week early with Jenny, Doug and James before they headed up to SD and MT for the holiday. Kaylynn loves her new Easy Bake oven and James seemed to like his new blocks.
Though I think they both liked the oven accessories and box for the oven the best!
Peek!
And K was busy keeping James away from the stockings and guaranteed concussion-causing holders!
Christmas Eve was just the three of us. Here we are, all dressed up and ready for church.
After our traditional soup dinner and a quick trip out to look at Christmas lights we came home to open gifts!
Our princess got some cooking accessories.
A new scooter (which has made several laps around the living room/kitchen!)
Did you know you can play Sorry 8 times in one day...? I didn't either until K did it today!
K did take a few minutes away from her toys to show off Daddy's new fly fishing rod/reel.
Daddy and I like this gift the best (but she thinks she can only wear it to hockey games)!
(BTW, we went to The Princess and the Frog this weekend too. It was GREAT!!)When K opened this from her Godmother she squealed - "just what I always wanted!!!" Great work, Nic! And Santa brought a special Disney castle with all the princesses and princes (except, as Kaylynn promptly noticed, Ariel!)Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. Happy New year!

It's like we are living in parallel Christmas lives. Lucy got the same apron, the same scooter, easy bake oven and we saw The Princess and the Frog, too! She also got a Clemson hoodie (grandpa is an alumna). And one of our stocking holders fell on a poor little toe! I always knew that would happen.

Glad you all had a wonderful Christmas. All of Michael's siblings and parents were out here for the holiday. Far from a quiet Christmas!
