Christmas Day 2013

In our jammies on Christmas morning. 


 I loved having Alex with us.


 And it was so great to have Steph, Jared and Shad there that morning, too!


It was Shad's first Christmas with his parents.


 After opening our stuff, we headed over to the Mason's to see if Santa had visited them.
The jolly old fellow always leaves exotic fruit in Ashley's stocking.  This year it was a tiny pineapple and miniature bananas. Brigs was afraid to touch the pineapple.


 Logan scored with Legos.


 
 So did James.


This family is so crazy about Legos they even had a Lego advent calendar.  So very cool.



 Next we drove over to see what the Stower's got.  Lily was happy with her stash.


 Miss Olivia loves her new doll.

And Jack made us come down in their basement to see his motorized scooter.


 Santa was good to this fam.




Later that afternoon, everyone dropped by our place for food and visiting.  We got to see Megan and Andrew for the first time since the wedding.  They left later that day with the McKnights for California for four days.


 I'm so glad Dad Grose was able to come up.  He's a trooper.


 Cute sissies.


 Shad kept stealing Brighams puffs.


 
 And in a minor, but nice, Christmas Day miracle, my amaryllis bloomed that very morning.

Yay for Christmas!
