Christmas morning Chris and I opened our presents at our house before heading to Lynn and Kerry's. Once there, the girl's were already through their stockings and on their way to the presents.

You will start to notice one of our Christmas traditions is to wear our Christmas pajamas Christmas morning. However, when Ashley woke up she refused to come downstairs in anything but her Christmas dress!

The best gift the three girls got this year was one from Uncle Chris. Every year Chris' work does a white elephant gift exchange at their Christmas party. This year Chris got a...
very large stuff fish. We thought it was kind of cute and something they could take up to the cabin, but never expected it to be as big of a hit as it was. They were running it up and down the hall making him swim, then they put him on the hardwood floor so they could sit on him and scoot around, it was crazy.
The other white elephant gift we got was given to my dad...a beer can and bullet wind chime. We seriously should have waited to buy all our gifts until after Chris' party.

After presents we had our favorite breakfast of fried oysters and then watched Despicable Me. I had not seen the movie before but absolutely loved it. I actually watched it twice that day. Chris feel alseep for the first veiwing, so I made him watch it once we got back home. Then came more eating and a game of Taboo. Taboo was a little to difficult for my parents and we laughed more than we played, however later we discovered Catch Phrase was a better option.
