Christmas #2

We continued our Christmas celebration on Wednesday, Dec. 23. This was with the Trent side...my parents, sister's family, grandma, and us. We hosted at our house and had a great time. We tried a couple of new recipes, which were a hit. They were actually from the "Julie and Julia" party at the Bible study I attend.
Gifts were a-plenty. Brooklyn got a really cool closet for her American Girl doll clothes, Jack loved his wooden baseball field pinball machine, Zac loved his special new headphones for running, and I got Photoshop Elements for the computer. I've got all my pictures organized and now need to figure out how to do some fun stuff with them! Olivia even got a little present...mom and dad are sponsoring a little guy through Compassion International in memory of Olivia. How cool is that?
So, I've got two Christmases down, and only 3 more to go! At this rate, I should be caught up by Valentine's Day!

I love, love, love it that your parents are sponsoring a child in honor of Olivia! I can't think of a more perfect gift!

P.S. I'm jealous of the photoshop elements gift you got. I would love to have that :)

I am also jealous about the photoshop. It should be a lot of fun!
