Merry Christmas!

A wonderful Christmas we had this year.  Greta enjoyed opening presents.  Learned some Christmas songs.  And was a joy (well most of the time).

Christmas Eve - Mom and Dad came down for dinner and to go to church with us.  Greta was super excited.  After Church, she opened her one present of PJs and a new Christmas book - A Curious George Merry Christmas.  Then Ryan read her the book and off to bed she went.




Christmas Morning - Greta slept in to about 7:00!  Yeah!!  Merry Christmas to me!  Then we got up and had breakfast - her request.  I had made a breakfast casserole in the crockpot and it didn't turn out too well - was a little dry.  But none-the-less, we ate it and had donuts from Mom.  Then the present opening began.  Her big gift was a new chair from Pottery Barn - and she loves it!




Then after presents we headed to Unionville for the first celebration.  Mom and Dad outdid themselves on thoughtful gifts.  And as Julie said... Family, love and laughter truly is the best gift!

Then home for a few days, and then off to Fort Wayne to celebrate with the Delaney's.  More family fun and lots of food!  There was no going hungry there.

Then back home for a few days before back to work.  The vacation always goes by too fast and it did again this year.  But many great memories and looking forward to a great 2015!
