The best Christmas ever...




Christmas Eve was the greatest. It was wonderful to have everyone together. Good food in the Gallery and opening presents, many of them made by the giver. Sam and Stu and thier families slept overnight, or at least stayed...along with Cass they were all up until about 3 a.m. It has been a long time since Santa visited our house. Malachi jumped on our bed in the morning and shouted "Grammy, Santa brought me a train, come see my train!"



Dax and Cabe opening their jammies.
Malachi was happy with the first thing he opened, Grace just wanted to open more presents...she didn't care who they were for.


Mini Santa.

I bought this puppet theatre before I had any grandchildren.

Mike gave each of the kids a painting of my dad saddling Rio.
Each painting represents a season of the year.Mike plays Santa for some neighbor families.
Val is making sure he passes the tummy test...no extra padding required.

Where in the world did you get that Santa suit? And why didn't he put it on on Christmas Eve? He'll have to do that next year.
