Christmas Day

 Santa filled all our stockings--and left us some fun presents!
 and so did Aunt Pamela--the stack of presents from her!
 And look at all the presents around the tree.
 Santa brought Ben a moveable Spiderman--"it looks like he's running!"
 Even Zane was spoiled this year!
 Emmalee didn't just get 1 My Little Pony--she got 2 (from Santa).  And according to her--"this is the best Christmas EVER!"  She also received a Play-Doh ice cream maker.  She didn't come out & ask Santa for this (because it was an "expensive present") but she secretly told Snowflake (our Elf on the Shelf) so luckily the message was delivered!
 Callum with his new suspenders & bow tie.
 Ben opening presents.
 Zane all comfy by the pile of presents.
 Ben was super excited to find a present that was taller than him--and it was for him!  (a mirror for his bedroom)
After opening this present, he had to try it on.  He loves the minions!
It was a great Christmas--as always, we were spoiled.  Everyone received what they wanted (and more).  And even better--we had everyone home & didn't have to pack up the vehicle to leave for Wyoming.  We decided to take Ethan to his shuttle bus stop (in IF) the morning of the 26th & leave for Wyoming from there.
We had omlettes for brunch, & then I made salsa & guacamole for a dinner/snack.  (We also had grilled cheese sandwiches).  It was a great day!
