Christmas Morn

 Santa came!!!  This year Katie got to spend the night at mom and dad's so she was here when we all woke up in the morning.  Kids always make it more fun with their excitement.


 Opening stockings.  Christi and Katie play a guessing game trying to guess what is wrapped up in the stockings and try to get outrageous stuff that no one will guess.

 Christi said she didn't have any pajamas to wear on PJ day at school, Katie picked out these perfect ones so now she does!!!!  Her kindergartners will love it!



 Katie picked out this most perfect bone for Lucy May.

 The kids divvying up gifts

 The Grand-dogs got Seahawk jerseys, but Lucy didn't like hers . It was a little too small and I think it hurt her elbow a little getting it in the arm hole and then she was paralyzed and didn't move.  Rufus and Lulu liked theirs and Lulu wores hers all day.  Rufi had to have his exchanged for a bigger one.  Moosie, though, hers was returned.  I was bummed, hoping she would like it more....but....she did not.  So, won't torture her with it.





 The aftermath...

 My spot was stolen...

Christmas Eve at Tony & Kara's

 We went to our annual Christmas Eve get together at Tony and Kara's.  It's good to see them.  We don't see them often enough.


 Larrie, his friend Pam, and Larrie's sister Nola were able to make it, which was nice.








 

 Judy wanted in on the photo action too!  She looks like an elf compared to David and Tony!

Littel ice skating adventure

 We tried a little ice skating...yeah.  ice skater I am not, though, eventually I got where I wasn't walking on skates, and glided a teeny bit...but stiff as a board.  Triple sow cows are not coming soon, nor is going backwards, or sideways, or barely forward for that matter.  But, it was fun and Katie was all over the place.










Seattle Center

 We went to check out the holiday train village in the center.  Boy, does a lot of work go into setting that up.  Then, kids can control the trains with help of the adults.
