| December 10- This thing must have weighed over 100 pounds! |
 |
| December 14- Decorating the Christmas tree! By the way, that's not an ornament Esther's eating. |
 |
| December 15- Christmas decorating- I didn't even know they made wreathes for your neck! It certainly wasn't the most comfortable thing I've ever worn. |
 |
| December 16- My home school group had a Christmas party and afterwards some of the kids and I sang Christmas songs for the parents. |

Christmas Eve
After one of our favorite dinners (hamburger and potatoes), we got to open some early presents:
 |
| Gifts from our friends down in Texas -perfume and Nancy Drew books! |
 |
| Gifts from friends- including candy and hot cocoa mix! |
 |
| Gifts from our parents including candy, movies, and nailpolish. |
Christmas Day
We had Christmas by ourselves this year since our friends were all with their families.
 |
| Christmas morning! This is Esther and I right before we started opening presents. Google automatically added the sparkles on the windows for some reason... |
 |
| A hat and scarf set Esther crocheted, which seems a little small on me. The sparkles on the tree were also automatically added by Google. |
 |
| Gifts from my parents, including movies and makeup! |
 |
| I made this earring holder for Esther since she got her ears pierced recently and she's been getting lots of earrings! |
 |
| Buffy enjoyed the tissue paper more than the gifts! |
 |
| Lots of good movies! |

Merry Christmas everyone!
