Christmas Day

Each kid got four things in his or her stocking and one present to unwrap (well, Caleb didn't get one to unwrap, but he doesn't know so don't tell him.) And then Erik and I and my parents got a swing set for all the kids together. Hooray!!! We hid the box in the greenhouse and then made a string trail which the kids had to follow all through the main house, basement, garage, etc. until they found the swing set. Lots of fun!
Ok, this picture is so strange! It's pretty cute of the kids (not strange), but I think Erik was playing around with the camera settings. Everything around the kids is blurry but it looks more like a cool photographic trick than an operator error. Plus, we did not have star-shaped lights on our tree. So whatever time lapse or light-bending feature he used created these effects. Or, as Erik said looking at it just now, "Wait, I think I see the Virgin Mary in one of the window panes."




Fun stocking stuffers.



Roller Skates!



Setting up a new hot wheels track



Next time you see Kate, ask her to show you what a Bumble Bee is like.


So excited about new clothes...
