Christmas celebrations #2, #3, and #4

On Christmas Eve, the four of us stayed home and opened Christmas presents from each other. Grandpa Kim gave the boys a wagon, and Owen a digital camera. He loves it! He has probably taken a few hundred pics by now (he takes after me that way!)

Owen also got a policeman costume (as pictured here), and a Backyardigans play-doh pirate ship kit. He was very spoiled this Christmas!


On Christmas morning we headed over to my parents house where we spent the day with Grandma, Grandpa, Big-Papa (my Grandpa), Great-Uncle Peter, Uncle Nathan, Auntie Karitas, Uncle Danny, and Uncle Adam. And once again Owen got spoiled! He got books, musical instruments shaped like jungle animals, more play-doh, a shaving kit for the tub, and some games. 
And we had another yummy turkey dinner with all the works! Owen had a great day and even though he didn't nap, and he ended up going to bed late, he was really well behaved (and had lots and lots of new toys to play with).

On Boxing Day the whole crew came over to our house for lunch and a family game of Rock Band.

We had the Warawa extended-family gathering in Langely on Dec 28th. Owen and I went to that while Papa stayed home with Andy. And that evening we went back to Grandma and Grandpa's house and met up with Uncle Dusty and Uncle Jesse (plus the rest of the gang too!) This Christmas season was very busy for us, but we did get to see a lot of 
family, which was awesome!

And again, Owen got extremely spoiled! He got a cowboy costume complete with a horse, a race car track and remote control race cars, and an art easel! What a lucky boy! Now I have to clear out some old toys to be able to fit all the new ones in! :)

On Dec 29th we had the whole gang over to our house again for breakfast and more visiting. Owen had a great time playing with all his Uncles!

And now we are all so exhausted from all the visiting that we are back to napping every afternoon - thank goodness!
