Christmas Eve 2009

On Christmas Eve we went to our church's Christmas Eve service then to Percy's moms for dinner and to exchange presents. There were about 20 people there but I managed to only take pictures of three of them, Aunt Clara, DJ, and Kristin. Thanks to everyone else as well for all of Chesley's great gifts and ours too! We didn't leave till late then got home and spent the rest of the night straightening up the house and trying to put together some breakfast pizzas, (which I've made before without complication), for everyone who was coming over in the morning to see Chesley on her first Christmas. Well, Percy forgot to buy the hashbrowns and of course everything is closed at 11:00pm Christmas Eve. But his mom has some so he heads all the way out there and makes it back by midnight. Then we go to put the gifts together which shouldn't be that big a deal right? Well, the Pottery Barn chair cover says to fluff in dryer with a damp towel to get all the wrinkles out. I know good and well I won't ever take it off to do this so I might as well do it now. But I get the towel too wet and then it takes forever to get the cover dry. We put the other big gift together without much trouble and finally got in bed around two. You would have thought we were up assembling bikes for out 3 ten year olds with the amount of work we created for ourselves! But Christmas morning was worth it when baby girl saw her gifts!

Chesley and her Aunt Clara and her new horse with a bell around his neck.

This is the Carhart jacket Casey and Dottie gave her for a year or so from now, I think Chesley was a little confused about how it would fit too!
