Christmas Day

Thought I'd post some Christmas Day shots. We had a great day. Starting out at 7:00am at our house, the girls had a blast opening gifts and eating a special Christmas day meal. Ava got some Legos to build with while Jillian opened a cash register (which has quickly become the favorite play gift for both girls). Jon outfitted the family in new Sharks gear. Even little Eli is game ready. Go Sharks!

Our friends the Johnson's sent us a great snow globe with Finn's picture in it. The girls carry their new friend around all over the house. Give us a big smile Jillian!We next loaded up the van with some gifts and headed out for the day. A grueling 5 minute drive down Blossom Hill road to the Olson's. Uncle Andrew was home from Cal Poly and delivered a group of packages with a theme - Cal Poly Gear. Grandpa O spent a lot of time holding Eli. Grandma O had hot danish - yummy - for breakfast number 2 and we enjoyed some time outside swinging the baseball bat.
Lunch time meant that it was off on the next grueling drive - a whopping 7miles south on highway 85 to the Benson's. Grandma and Grandpa B were waiting excitedly for us to arrive. Uncle Andrew(#2), his girlfriend Michelle and her daughter Haleigh were there Christmas excitement. Some snacks, stockings, and then an early dinner. It was a world wind of excitement during the gift giving. Ava and Jillian got some matching sleeping bags and pillows. The girls had a long day but a fun day. Here we are in front of the tree.

Eli hanging out on the floor with daddy. What a smile!

Merry Christmas 2007!
