Opening presents at Mimi's
After our morning of opening presents, it was time to open presents at Mimi's house. We arrived late b/c of some water issues, but after a delicious meal of Prime Rib, we ripped into the presents. As always, Mimi & Papa Ralph were so very generous to us and everyone was super happy with all of their gifts. Some of the pictures are a little fuzzy or at weird angles b/c the children insisted on taking many of the pictures themselves with my new camera. It's interesting to see things through the eyes of the children.
Santa came to Nana's
Santa managed to find my mom's house and left presents for the children there too. We arrived at my mom's Friday night and after watching the news . . . my sister Katie had been contacted by the local news station in Johnstown to do a redecorating piece. She redecorated a room for under $1000 to inspire people to do their own rooms and was featured in a 2 minute segment on the news. Very cool! We watched her piece, ate lots of yummy food and the kids got to open their presents. They had a blast and loved everything. Will got a great ride on loader truck, Maggie got lots of doll stuff, and Walker got what we really really wanted - a watch - a John Deer pocket watch, which was attached to his sweatpants even today!
"Would you rather" challenge
We played a great game the 26th at my mom's house with my sisters and their friends - "Would you Rather" and Dan had to hold the Captain Morgan pose for 3 player turns to win a challenge.
It was lots of fun.
