Looking at these pictures in order you can see that we started off
with the Christmas stocking gifts, which should have been done before church,
but we were so busy getting ready for church that we looked at the gifts inside
the stockings more closely after church.
While we were preparing lunch and waiting for Jason's family and James and
Lynnette to arrive, we opened the pajama gifts. We couldn't do it Christmas Eve
night because Penny was at work. So this was a good time to do it. Then they
didn't change into them until after lunch.
Lunch preparation was delayed a little while we talked to Marcus by way of
Skype for a little over an hour.
I guess we forgot to get myself in the lunch pictures, but of course I was
there. Just as we finished, Kevin called and so everyone took their turns on
the phones to listen and/or visit for about an hour or so. It was perfect
timing. We think it was around 3 or 3:30 by the time we actually got started
with the gift giving which lasted the typical 3 hours or so.
When Becky placed Benjamin in his brand new chair, he looked so cute, we had to
take a picture of just him.
We sang Happy Birthday to Daniel just before we ate dinner and then he opened
his birthday gifts after that. We never did gather together for a traditional
group picture.
