Christmas # 2 with Oma, Lou, Pop, ZiZi and Uncle Steve

Our second Christmas celebration occurred at our house on Dec. 23rd. We had most of Darrin's family over for a Christmas brunch before we left for Albuquerque. Plus we celebrated ZiZi's birthday with a Boston cream pie!

Charley enjoyed helping everybody open their presents. She especially liked the tissue paper. The toy camera and her new bath toys that Oma gave her were a big hit and kept her entertained. But I think she was more interested in Oma's cell phone.

ZiZi gave me and Charley a matching Mother Goose apron and bib.


We had lots of gifts to get through!

Christmas #1 with Grandpa Allen and Lola

We were lucky enough to celebrate Christmas three times! Our first Christmas celebration was with Grandpa Allen and Lola. They came over to visit us on Sat. Dec 15th. Charley enjoyed opening her presents. Grandpa Allen and Lola made a very special recordable story book for Charley that she really enjoys listening to! The highlight of their Christmas celebration was when Charley let Grandpa hold her!

Charley liked her new storage bins and her nesting blocks.
Thank you for our new Hallmark ornaments.
Hanging out with Grandpa!
Merry Christmas!
Thank you Grandpa and Lola
