Christmas through the New Year

Christmas Eve we set up the Princess Castle from Santa so Abbey would see it first thing when she came down in the morning. When she finally noticed it, we were in the Christmas Sun Room for 2.5 hours opening gifts. It was a very realxing morning, watching Abbey get excited about every gift she opened and then watching her play with the gift for a few minutes before we prodded her to open another. It really could have lasted all day if we hadn't pushed her along a little bit: she had A LOT of presents to open!

Let the opening commence! This is her Ariel bathtub doll:

We all posed for some photos with the girls:





Both Abbey and Lilly had a cold for the last half of GG's visit. I really like this picture; even though Abbey is super sick, both her and GG are enjoying a push pop :)




We also had my second cousin, Amy Spiegal, over for coffee. She is my Grandma Elsa's niece that lives about 25 minutes away.
