This was the Christmas...

...that we opened stockings and presents by a fire......that Grant totally understood the idea of stockings and Santa.

...that I was more excited about Grant's slinky dog than he was.

...that mason got a huge big boy bike.

...that his best friend was a girl named lottie.

...he learned to "play" the harmonica.

...Mason wasn't too old to be excited about a stuffed animal and a book..

...that I got boots. : )

...that Grant was this cute in his Christmas pjs...

that Mason learned the meaning of strategy while playing Connect four...

And got beyond excited about getting an etch-a-sketch.

...I made fudge that actually hardened. ....Grant loved anything with Lightning McQueen on it.

Mason chose this method of showing me what he got in his stocking.

Grant ate Clementines, aka cuties, like they were going out of style.

It was also the most relaxed, wonderfully enjoyable Christmas we've had.
