Christmas, 8 days later

The Prince playing Christmas music.



The Gearhead showing off his gift from his parents.



The Prince trying out his Chucks.



The Princess and The Gearhead's mom.


The Princess opening stocking stuffers. Note the hair and make-up. She stayed up late on Christmas Eve doing the hair so that she'd look pretty for Christmas morning pictures. Who looks pretty in Christmas morning pictures?!



The Prince got a 12-pack of Coke from Grandma & Grandpa for his new mini-fridge that he got from us. They contributed 1/2 of the cost of his "big" gift, a camera, which he got at my folks house later in the day, but Grandma wanted him to have something to open at our house.



The Princess put on everything wearable that she got, when she opened it. Thus, she has two necklaces and two pairs of socks, and those geek glasses.



The Gearhead's mom opening her gift, a set of mugs. She wanted them over a year ago, but I failed to get them for her until this year. She looks happy, huh?

Our Christmas tree.



Me, baking. This was a few days before Christmas, but I didn't stay up late doing my hair and make-up, so I don't wish to publish a Christmas morning picture of me.



Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and God bless you!

Mrs. C: That's my mil (not mom), but that's her surprised look, not horrified. She was thrilled, because she really loves my mugs, and regretted not getting them at the Home & Garden Party where we got mine.

Those pictures are on Christmas; his accident wasn't until Monday. His face is all scuffed up on the left side still, but he is getting better. Thank you. :)
