Merry Christmas!

We had a great Christmas this year.  Kathryn woke up around 8am and we got the tree all lit up and the cameras ready and then got her from her bedroom.  She went right over to the presents and started playing with her farm.  She loved everything, but I think her favorite present was her little car from Gangy and Pop Pop.  She loved being pushed on it over and over.  She was all smiles and laughs.  She reacted to everything and had a great time.  It was so different than last year when she just laid there.  I know next year will be even more exciting.  She got a lot of great things like clothes, books, and toys.  I got some good stuff too.  iTunes gift cards, Amazon gift cards, a HUMONGOUS Snickers bar from Mom (it's size is truly obscene) and a new camera from Jared and Kathryn.  My old point and shoot really needed to be replaced. Now...if I could just replace the iPod Kathryn broke.  That shall be my next request.

My mom made some delicious French toast for breakfast and then around 12:15pm, we headed out to Lincoln, RI to our adopted family's house.  We're so lucky to have the Parenteau's/Breckel's in our lives.  It makes the holidays so much more fun to have a real family gathering to look forward to.  Kathryn had fun there too and we tried to get some nice pictures in her new dress Neena sent her.  We had a dusting of snow last night, so it did look like Christmas.  She looked so cute in her dress.

Overall, it was a really nice day.  We're thankful to have Gangy here to celebrate and good friends to include us.  I'm so grateful to have a healthy little care to share Christmas with.  I look forward to celebrating many more with the Honeybaby.

Check out this huge Snickers bar!  It's so big it's obscene!

Thanks to my mother for making Jared a red bearded man for Christmas.

Getting ready to head out to Christmas dinner.

A rare family shot.
So pretty in the dress Neena gave her.

She loved getting pushed on her car!
Checking out all her stuff!
She loves the dolly Neena bought for her.
Check out the car Pop Pop made for her!

Someone's got disco fever!
