Christmas Day

Now that it is February, I guess it's a good time (finally) to get the rest of our Christmas pictures posted.  Although Christmas 2010 in our house may not have been the most enjoyable since 3 out of 5 of us were really sick and the other 2 were on the verge, at least we woke up to a beautiful sight outside.



Although Grace was feeling the worst on Christmas Eve, she woke up feeling a lot better and was excited to see what Santa brought her.

Santa even stuffed Grace's stocking with a book after her. . . okay, let's hope this is not in her future!

Claire, who was sick on the 23rd and seemed all better on Christmas Eve, woke up on Christmas Day appearing to feel worse and sadly was not too excited about her Christmas gifts.

Tyler, however, was thankfully spared from the worst of the sickness, and quickly got the hang of opening gifts.

Though like any normal kid, he enjoyed playing with them even more.

Claire managed to open all her gifts, but could not really muster a smile.

Unfortunately, she was starting to have a relapse.

And just wanted to go back to bed.

So of course, Grace took the opportunity to play with Claire's toy.

And Tyler showed he knows exactly what he's not supposed to do with his new toy.

So while it snowed outside, giving us a gorgeous White Christmas, we hunkered down inside and worked on getting well.
