Yesterday we celebrated Christmas at our house! We wanted to do a little Christmas with just our family - I think that in the future, we won't do it on a Sunday, because Sunday's are always just a little bit messed up... anyway - the girls got to open a few presents... Karissa actually gets it this year! You just rip!

Of course Karissa has to help!
Chloe loved her train from Grandma and Grandpa... goes straight to the mouth, of course!
and we finished off with a family dinner - with an "extra". Our friend Amy joined us, too. She's a college student here and has exams this week. Karissa's posing in the corner - that's her new thing. Pull out the camera and that's what she does!
Well, it is now time for us to pack up and go! We leave tomorrow morning and get into Abby at about 3:00. Wahoo! We are excited :) It will be so good to see everyone! Yes, Jen, I will give you a call. I had planned on it! See you all soon!
