Christmas, part 1

Bennett finally opened her last present yesterday.  My decorations are still all up, but I'm going to work on those today.  Christmas is officially over.  I'm going to try to go back and recap Christmas in a few different entries.  So here goes! 

Christmas Eve: We went to Mass and had our traditional dinner at Algonquin with the Tessiers, Auffenbergs and McCuskers.  Bennett decided not to nap that day, so we were really worried about her making it through dinner.  We decided to take an extra-long drive to Church, and she ended up falling asleep in the car, and slept through the first 40 minutes of Mass, which rejuvenated her quite nicely and she was a very good girl all night.  Our camera battery died at Algonquin, so I will have to get Christmas Eve pics from Grandma Joje, but here is a picture of Bennett in the car on the way to dinner in her cute hat and coat...


Christmas morning: First we woke up and Santa had come to our house! After we opened stockings, Bennett immediately saw her new nursery center which was a big hit! It was a little difficult to get her interested in opening her other gifts because she was so enthralled with it.  Eventually she got going and loved it all.  Santa was good to her this year!
