We had a wonderful Christmas. My parents hosted us all (my family and my in-laws) at their house. The girls got a ton of gifts (which they loved). Lots of clothes, and some toys too Here are some of my pictures from the day.

Here are all three girls. Aren't they beautiful?

Here is 'Ness in front of the tree. Notice the huge pile of presents behind her?

Here is Vallerie in her Christmas outfit. This out fit was technically too small for her, but it was Christmas time, so what is a momma to do?

Here is Tori with her Poppa. He is handing her a Grizzly catalog to look at while she was waiting. Do you think he is starting a little young with the power tools?

I made the girls scarves. Here is Vallerie holding hers.

Here is Tori getting some help opening a present with Poppa's help.

Here Tori is opening her favorite present. A baby! She loves babies. All the pictures after this Tori has her baby in her hand. Vanessa is wearing her scarf.

See? Baby in her hand! She is getting some clothes in this bag.

Here is my present. Darin built me a ukulele. Isn't it pretty?

Here Vallerie is opening one of the games that we got. She is very serious in this picture. It is hard to get a picture with her smiling, but she was very happy.

Here the girls and Darin are playing a new game. This is Vallerie's favorite present.

Here is another of Tori's favorite presents. This was from Aunt Christa and Uncle Jeff. She is trying to wink at me. She blinks both eyes instead of just one though. Isn't she cute?

Did I mention that we had a Turducken? I deboned the birds on Wednesday and Mom and Dad put them together on Christmas morning. It was delicious. None of us had had duck before, so it was quite an adventure. We may even try it again for Thanksgiving next year.

That was some of our holiday. As I come across more pictures I will pass them along.

Blessings,

Abby
