We had a very nice dinner tonight, and before Ella headed to bed, we opened our stockings. Here are a few pictures...
Yes, that's a doggie stocking on the bottom right part of the pictures. We got it for Max three years ago, and he knows that it's his!
Max got his stocking first, since he was so excited to see James take it off the mantle...
Then James went next...and yes, he was as excited as the dog! He got some magazines, an Xbox game called Vanquish, and of course some candy.
Ella watched James open his stocking, and then she got interested in her own. I guess it occurred to her that there might be fun stuff inside! She got down to business...
Pulling out her first present...
She needed a little bit of help, since she still thinks you're supposed to eat the wrapping paper.
Then I got to open mine! I got a beautiful garden magazine, candy, and some kitchen tools that I really wanted. Fun!!
Ella and Max playing with his new squeaky toy...
Tomorrow will be fun, too. We'll read the Christmas story, open presents, and have a nice breakfast!
