Christmas Post V

Christmas at Darnin & PawPaw's, 2014

 Eliette was content to sit and watch the fire.

 Chris and Eliette had an impromptu jam session.

Eliette was eager to help Darnin in the kitchen....You know---all that fridge work that needs to be done. (Eliette is a big fan of the fridge.)

There was a lot of hanging out and game playing before the big meal....

Before dinner was ready, Eliette clearly needed to stake claim at the table...

...and try the food...

Before long, it was time to open gifts. Woohooo. The kids thought this time would NEVER come!

Gage got Umi---this cool (but freaky to some) little monkey that lives at Darnin's and he wanted... He was so excited.

It wasn't long before it was time for bed. Gage was tired, but wanted to read some before bed...

 And this is how I found him and Umi when I returned. So sweet.

It was a great day and a great night.
