Christmas, Part I

Yesterday we began our Christmas celebration. We had a full house, with 6 grandmas and grandpas, as well as Jason, Beckey, Greta and Charlie. Here's our reading nook again - despite all the space in the house, we felt the need to cram 10 people into this spot. Go figure.

Eli patiently awaits the arrival of Greta and Charlie.

Eli and Grandpa Larry read the paper.

Koleman serenades the group with a rendition of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Present time! Charlie gets ready to dig in!

Eli, Milena and Kelson got arts and crafts supplies from Uncle Jason and Aunt Beckey. The kids all got onto the table and shared their presents. Lots of great artwork was done!

Greta should be ready to paint our house in a couple of years.

Kelson paints, and Koleman builds the jet fighter that he got.
