Christmas Eve and Christmas...

Christmas Eve at my Grandparents

Charli in her new Christmas PJ's

I just started this tradition this year

and am so excited to start a tradition in my house

I even bought myself some new PJ's!

Grandma Ann & Charli 

opening our gift to her

Cousin Caleb, Great Grandma Ann (GG) and Charli

I have many pictures like this 

growing up with my cousins and my Grandma

When we got home from Grandma's on Christmas Eve

Charli and Chad put out the reindeer food

rolled oats and silver glitter

We woke up to a white Christmas!!!

Sort of....

We had a major hail storm around 7 am 

also two bursts of lightning and thunder

Which woke up the whole house

Look at what Santa brought!!!!

A Leapster 2

Disney princess even

Charli was in heaven all morning

She told me after all the presents were opened

"Mommy I am so glad I got this Leapster!"

Just about everyone of Charli's friends have one

and she has been asking for one this past year.

Santa is so good.

Charli opened a Leapster Tag, pen and two coordinating books

from Uncle Mike.

These were really cool

and so sweet of Uncle Mike 

It is a whole learn to read system 

and just right for where Charli is developmentally.

He is the best gift giver.

Daddy opening up his calendar 

Charli and I make him one every year 

for his office.

Charli asked for an iron for Christmas

So of course I had to get one.

I bought the iron on Etsy for $6.00 

and the ironing board was found at

Kat's Meow in Chico.

And a Christmas dog!
