Doug is back at work today. We had a very nice week and a half with him home. The girls were so happy to spend so much time with their daddy. I know I neglected you during that time. I’m sure you understand, though. So here is my rather delayed Christmas post.
We started the morning with present opening at home in the PJs. First we gave the girls their stockings, and they had tons o’ fun!
Kyla reached into her stocking to get some of the goodies out.
I come from a very large Italian family. My mother is the oldest of 11 children. Five of those children and their families live in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The rest are in Florida, Kansas, California, and Japan (my parents travel a lot due to my mom’s job). My brother and his family are in Michigan. I am here, alone, in New Jersey. I get to Massachusetts a few times a year. The holidays always make me miss my family more. This is a happy post, I promise!
You see, my friends, I received a box from my grandparents at the beginning of the week. I didn’t open it right away; I figured it was wrapped presents for Christmas. Then on Wednesday something made me open the box. This is what I found inside.
Just a quick post for now, to show off my Halloween Medieval Princesses.
Look at the cute little shoes! We cheated. We do medieval recreations as a hobby, so I made the dresses for the girls for an event over the summer. My mom bought them the shoes over the summer, also.
