We finally got to have Christmas with some extended family on December 27th. With the aid of 4-wheel drive, we made it to and from Mom & Dad's house safely. Mom made some wonderful chicken noodle soup and sandwiches and then we opened gifts. Ava was much more into gift opening than she was at our house on Christmas eve. I'm not sure if it was that Sam and Addie were so excited or the fact that she had just done it a couple days prior, but she was all about tearing the paper and checking out the gifts. Ava got a new overnight bag which she called her purse, and carried it around for quite a while. She also liked her little tikes pet shop with all the animals. Overall, the gift opening gets to be more eventful each year as all the kids get older and more animated. There is never a dull moment!
