Christmas Eve is always our busiest day. We traditionally have Papaw done for a big breakfast and open presents so that Austin can go to his mom's on Christmas morning. This year was no different, but we only gave Camden a few of her gifts since we would be home on Christmas morning to do the rest.
She already began opening one gift before breakfast, so as soon as she had permission to leave the table, she dug in and finished opening it immediately.
One of her first gifts was a Candyland game.
I'm glad we bought several games on Black Friday. She has already developed an interest in playing them and we usually get one out everyday and at least pull out the pieces (wow, do you think she is my child?). She excitedly showed her Papaw her new game.
Next she opened the two gifts from him.
They were special ornaments from Hallmark. One has penguins ice skating and floating in inner tubes on a lazy river on the mountain. It lights up and plays "Let It Snow." She was quickly obsessed with this one and it is a favorite already. We're just thankful the music is actually pretty, because otherwise it would be soooo annoying to hear over and over and over and over.....
The other one is a 2010 ornament that has a cute little snowman on it.
Once all the presents were open, we got to work playing Candyland. With a little help, Camden was able to play an entire round.
Camden kept drawing double squares and had a commanding lead, but Daddy came from behind, with a draw of the ice cream square, and won the game.
Finally we got down the stockings and found all the treats inside.
