Christmas Day

We spent Christmas day with Grammy, Papa, Beth, Brad & Sharon! It was such a fun, relaxing day with our family and Grammy totally outdid herself with gifts for everyone (especially if your name happens to be Claire & Anna!)!!! I have to thank everyone for all the wonderful, heartfelt gifts! Thanks Grammy & Papa for making Christmas so special for our family. We really appreciate all your hard work!!!
One of the really fun traditions that Grammy has always done, is hunting for Christmas gifts. Grammy & Papa hide the presents all over the house and we all go search for them. This year, Claire really got into the hunt! It was so cute to watch her run all over looking for presents. I think she had more fun doing that than actually opening them!


Papa & Claire

This was Anna's favorite gift! Aunt Beth made sock monkeys for Claire & Anna and stitched their initial on it! We LOVE hand made, personalized gifts! THANKS Beth!! This will be something they'll always keep!

Hmmmm.... is that Tiffany blue??? Yes, it is! Good job Bradley! Sharon received a beautiful Tiffany necklace!
