Merry Christmas Party at Jack and Shirley's! 12/23/13

Merry Christmas started for us on the 23rd. We celebrated with Jack and Shirley at their house. We had a festive Christmas spread of beautiful snacks and treats and exchanged gifts. This was the first year that you REALLY GOT IT! You anticipated the gifts and were excited about Santa coming to our house! At Jack and Shirley's, you kept telling me you wanted to get the party started! I thought maybe you thought there would be dancing etc. In reality, you were simply ready to open gifts! The evening ended with a dance party anyway! You and Shirley especially enjoyed rocking around the Christmas tree!


Before the party officially started, you took some photos! You are a fantastic photographer!

You and Shirley were Santa's helpers! Shirley would give you the gift and you would deliver the presents!

Jack and Shirley gave you a Mrs. Potato Head...and it was a HIT!

Silly Cole-Cole!

 Daddy got some Chief's golf balls and they were a hit!

After gifts and snacks, you started the dance party! Jack and Shirley gave you a Chipmunks Christmas CD and you wanted to hear it immediately! 

Each year (for as long as I can remember...we have tried to take a timed group photo! If we could see Gowah's face, this one would have been great! I'm not sure what I said just before the timer went off...but you are looking at me for some reason :)
