Christmas morning started EARLY with Sarah bounding out of bed at 6:30 to go look for Daddy. I'm pretty certain she had forgot it was Christmas because she was stunned at the sight of the presents under the tree.
She had to be persuaded by Daddy to go wake up a sleepy head Charlotte, and then of course I was obliged to drag my tired bum up too. I can't remember the last time I was up that early. :-)
One of the first things Sarah opened was her Apron set...
...Which was quickly followed by Charlotte opening her Chef's outfit. These girls do love to pretend to cook.
Charlotte yawns through an obligatory perusal of one of her new books (The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear). The girls ended up getting quite a few new books! So far the most loved is Pinkalicious.
Sarah the Baker makes cookies!
Michael and his new Lands End turtlenecks. Um, I think I get him something from Lands End every year! (Borrring!)
Chef Charlotte is in the house!
Apparently, so is Dr. Charlotte...
Eventually Grandma and Grandpa arrived. Sarah's face here says, "Charlotte get off me!!!"
Grandma got sucked into trying to take a baby doll out of packaging. The way they package things these days....
There's me and new salt and pepper shakers that I've needed for years that Mom has been saying she'll get me for years! Finally, I have them.
There's my handsome husband all cleaned up. Behind him and in the kitchen you can see some of the new paint we're working on in the kitchen and family room. (We're not done yet! Stay tuned.).
I agonized over what to get my Mom for Christmas. Fortunately she loves her "Grandma bag."
There's Dr. Charlotte again. When she looked at her reflection wearing these "glasses" she said, "I look like Grandma."

I love the chef outfit and the baker hat! Glad you had such a wonderful day!
The paint looks like it is coming along nicely.
