Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

                                          This morning Mary, Meredith, Quincy, Pinky and Trout were patiently waiting on the couch for present opening time.

Ava was happy with her perfume!

One of Jenna's presents was a new buddy for Meredith.. Her name is Sweet Sugar.

Amelia was very upset when Ava got a Kindle case and she didn't!  Her Kindle was coming!

Drew was happy with his photo blanket.

It is in the 60's here this Christmas and very, very wet!  We are on our way to Grandpa and Grandma's house!

 

Going to bed late anticipating Santa, waking up early to open presents, and a rainy car ride make for a great time to take a Christmas nap.

Girl cousins galore!

Scale

 

Jenna came home from school (today Winter Break begins)  saying that her teacher would be teaching weights and scales after break.  Jenna had to work all by herself on building her own scale this evening.

                                                      And here is Jenna's scale.
