The Obligatory Christmas Roundup

Dad checking out one of his gifts, that 'y'all shouldn't have bought', but we did anyway. He opened all of his presents with a pocket knife. Which is...kinda hilarious.

Jon, super excited about getting Season 1 of Supernatural, which is his favorite tv show, like 'of all time...ever'.

I got a new iPod, which is amazing, considering I've been using an ancient iPod MINI for the last 5 years. Also seen are my various pairs of super long socks, house slippers, pajamas and cold weather gear. I'm not kidding when I say I can't handle the cold anymore. I used to walk around the house in shorts and tank tops in the dead of winter...but not anymore. All I wanted were things to bundle up in. My Mama happily obliged.

Dad got Mom some earrings, which he wrapped in several grocery store bags and placed inside of an empty box of Prilosec.

Jill, the chihuahua, has a heating pad that you warm up in the microwave. My Dad got her addicted to it, I'm not going to pretend that's normal. But, her bed buddy was falling apart, so she got a new one. She loves it.

We all got various board games, books, DVDs and music. Here we are playing Blokus last night. Awesome board game! But even better was Jon playing it while offering commentary of his moves in a French accent.

I sent all of the neighbors a gift. I filled cute Christmas tins with a dozen Peanut Butter Buckeyes, 5 huge Chocolate Chip Cookies, a Cinnamon-Applesauce Ornament and a card.

And for Cassie, we dressed up Jill in an Elf Suit. Sadly, Molly's suit didn't fit her. They were gifts and I guess the giver didn't realize how much bigger Molly is. :(

I'll probably share more pictures from Christmas soon. Just because I have to show you how my Dad literally fell asleep at the Christmas Eve Dinner Table. It's priceless.
