Christmas Day

 After our traditional meal of 'Breakfast pizza', cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate, we started opening presents.

Only food photo was this one of all the 'fixins' for the hot chocolate. Mini chocolate mint chips were a particular favorite this year.

Several of us were the recipients of 'functional art' from Matt's business - Transmigration Woodworking.

Scott got a utility knife, which comes in handy for his work in Portland.


For George who has a dish of ice cream almost every night - an ice cream scoop
And I got one of his high quality pizza cutters.
Cady got a corkscrew and bottle opener.

Aren't they beautiful?  Who knew that skateboards had such nice wood?
Nice jackets, new crocs, a wonderful book, Messi vs Ronaldo - One Rivalry - Two GOATS
Such thoughtful gifts all around! 
Johnny and Monica got a gift card for Cheesecake Factory and a kind offer from me to watch Isabella while they went out to eat.  She was having none of that though, as she LOVES Cheesecake Factory!  You can see how thrilled she was!
The uncles gave our pink loving princess the perfect coat.
And she also got pink roller skates!
And some skating lessons....
Isabella was thrilled when she opened a gift bag to find a new I-phone.  We reuse our gift bags and George had actually gotten ME a new phone but he failed to notice the "To: Isabella - From Grandma and Grandpa" on the other side side of the bag.  She wasn't too disappointed!!!!
I know that presents are not the most important part of Christmas but they surely are fun!
