A Christmas Blast












We had the best Christmas as a family. Things were changed up a bit this year, and we had to do Christmas alone as a family. But we made extra sure we had an extra good time with the Chilluns. Joe and I set a budget and stuck to it pretty darn good. Each child got only a few gifts, more thoughtful than frivolous. Gabe's first present was wrapped 5 separate times and placed inside bigger and bigger boxes. After the first box, he declared, "oh you guys are tryin to trick me." TOTALLY BUSTED!
The photos says it all. Inside, were 4 video games. Major plus for the rents.

As for Ava she was the easiest. If it said, showed or alluded to a Princess she was in Aba heaven. PRINCESS! is all we heard as she tore through her gifts.

HEY! GG has that EXACT dress!! Me thinks Jama is trying to make Ava and GG dress alike. GG has a Dora tent she got from Meital on her bday. Jason and I spend a lot of time with her in that tent. It is so fun! Say, I ordered a pair of Naughty Monkey shoes taht were accidentally sent to Grandma Doris' house. Have you seen my shoes? Cuz I see one of Gabe's gifts were placed in a Naughty Monkey shoe box.
