Christmas in....

Well...it started in Connecticut and ended in Texas. Oh..and I had what felt like 4 days of Christmas. 4 days of opening presents! Not bad, eh? :)

Mom and Dad drove down from Montreal to Connecticut before Christmas and spent a few days here. On my first day of Christmas (the 23rd) We all got together at my sister's house for dinner and to exchange gifts. My parents gave me some of my gifts that night...and saved some for Christmas Day.

Jake, Paige, and Caleigh

On day 2 of Christmas....we went to Dan's family Christmas eve get together that they do every year. All their family was there..aunts, uncles, cousins, grandchildren...everyone. And lots of good food. The kids all got lots more presents...

And my parents gave me my christmas stocking on Christmas Eve...since we (my parents and I) were leaving early the next day for......

....Texas!!! It was a different Christmas...flying and going somewhere even warmer than CT (which was already a lot warmer than I'm used to for the holidays)...

So Christmas day...(which was really my 3rd day of Christmas) was spent at Steve and Janets. Janet made our traditionaly Christmas breakfast which was so good...and then we opened...yet again...more presents.

Late that night....Dave and Kim flew into Texas. So the next day...(Boxing Day!)...and my 4th Day of Christmas...we exchanged more presents with Kim and Dave.

After opening presents, we spent the afternoon outside at the part...it was such a nice day!!! And here are some pictures....

He's just so cute....

This picture was when Steve was making him go down the slide....he wasn't a big fan of the idea!

After the park...we went home to cook our Christmas dinner...turkey and all the trimmings. Steve has one of those deep fryer turkey things...so we cooked it in that. They always turn out good in those things. Here we are taking the turkey out of the fryer...

All 4 days of Christmas were great....It's not a bad deal celebrating Christmas 4 days in a row...it's such a great holiday! :) definitely a favorite!
