Christmas 2008 photos

All the kids eagerly awaiting the parents getting up so they could open presents.

Trav pretending to crash, to demonstrate the cuddly effects of his new robe.

Misc. pictures of happy kids getting what they wanted.

My new play toy. A 17" notebook, that is all mine, and no one else's.

Oh, what do you do with the packing stuff?

You know how you want to avoid long lines and crowds at Christmas, so you order lots of presents on-line, so you can really get those special and perfect gifts for the ones you love. And along with your great carefully selected gifts, comes a LOT of packing stuff and tons of boxes. I know you are probably faced with the same dilemma that I have, what do you do with it all. If you dump it in your reclying bin, it will be full and there is no room for all your household reclyables, the same with the garbage.

Well, we came up with a solution.

Grandma, I hope the boxes we shipped arrive soon, and I REALLY hope you like your presents.
