Christmas #1

Over the weekend we had our first of many Christmas celebrations. We had Grammy and Boompa come down to our house so that we could celebrate together. We had such a nice time. We were thankful that they agreed to come to our house so it would make it easier for the girls to take their naps. We were able to sit down in the basement next to the warm pellet stove and enjoy each other's company and of course the presents. Keltie is so much fun to watch because she is so appreciative of every gift she gets (even clothes). She wanted to stop and play with each of them when she opened one up. We had to keep reminding her to continue opening or it would be next Christmas before she finished. Kinsley was more interested in eating the wrapping paper than anything else.
Keltie will be Daddy's camping buddy this summer with this amazing six pack holder. It's almost like a fanny pack, but much more manly since it hold beer.
Last year Keltie went to Boompa to read the tags and help her open up her presents. It was the same thing again this year.

My attempt at trying to get Kinsley's picture. Would be much more cute if I wasn't in it.
Playing catch with Daddy (you just can't see him).
Opening up the wagon for both the girls. Thanks Boompa for putting it together, even if Kevin finished putting her bike together before you finished.
"What can this be?" Notice the wheels in back as Boompa puts together the wagon.
A big girl bike. Kevin has spent time with Keltie practicing pedaling in the basement. So far, no such luck. She just doesn't quite get it. I laughed at the two of them because Kevin was getting so frustrated with it. Well, I tried then, and I completely understand why he was getting frustrated.
"Hang on Boompa." We took the sled outside the next day and Keltie had so much fun in it. I think when you are 2 1/2 you have to yell to let everyone know how much fun you are having.
Thanks Boompa and Grammy for a great day. We love you!

We did have a wonderful day, didn't we? It was so nice to actually be able to take time opening and enjoying gifts. Your pictures are so indicative of Keltie. I especially like the ones of the girls and me!!!
