The Christmas celebrations started on Christmas Eve with the Rho side of the family at Aunty Pat's house. Sadie got to see most of her cousins - Sophia, Samantha, Allison, and of course Paisley and Chase. We had planned to take a nice family picture in front of Aunty Pat's elaborate tree, but with 6 kids running around the house....we didn't quite accomplish that (oh well, maybe next year) :(
After the party, we headed home and decided to open Sadie's gifts. We are so grateful for the cute clothes, fun and educational toys, delicious snacks (especially Aunty Pat's famous chex mix), and nice books that were given to her from generous friends and family. She also received some "college money" and her very first "Patriot bond" from the Yamashitas. At 3 months old, she surely did not know what was going on, but next year should be a lot more fun to see her react to the gifts.
On Christmas morning we headed over to the other side of the circle to eat breakfast and watch Paisley and Chase open their gifts. Sadie seemed to enjoy watching them, but eventually fell asleep during the marathon of gift opening. Later, we went to the Minns to open a few more gifts and eat some lunch.....then.....home for a nap!
