From The Past: December 26, 2003

My mom, dad, and aunt all came over for Christmas Eve. We had finger foods to eat and then the kids opened their presents from us. Christmas Day was spent over at mom & dad’s house. The kids got tons of presents from everyone. We had a nice dinner, spent some time talking, and then came home. I think Kevin was in Ashley’s bedroom floor for a few hours at least opening up her Polly Pocket sets. She still has about eight Barbies that need to be opened.

Mom & Dad bought Andrew a huge keyboard. Andrew set that up and played for a while. He got tons of other stuff too, but lucky for us he’s old enough to open things for himself.

Above, are my nieces, Jesse & Sydnee.
