A Very Merry Grange Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year! It's hard to believe it's already come and gone. This was my 5th year spending Christmas in Huntington with Nate's family. We stayed down there for three days to celebrate Christmas and finish remodeling Nate's mom's bathroom. Avery is at such a FUN age for Christmas. We didn't buy her many presents (just puzzles and books) but she still was thrilled when she opened each gift. We didn't want her to feel overloaded with gifts, so we had her open one present every 10-20 minutes. It worked out nicely because she enjoyed and appreciated each gift.

I received some nice and thoughtful gifts from Nate and my family. My sister-in-law, Kori, made the cutest ABC book for Avery. Each letter in the book has a picture of someone in the family, for example, the "A" page has a picture of Aaron, Amanda, Anna, Audrey, Anika, and Alexa. It must have taken her a long time to do but it turned out so nicely and Avery LOVES it. She also loves gifts from Holly and Lisa who made Avery homemade finger puppets and memory cards with pictures of all her cousins. Thanks for all the nice presents!!

Grandma Grange gave Avery this shirt that says "Who needs Santa when I have Grandma" - So true!

Cousins - Alexa, Kai, Tayvan and Beau

Worn out from opening all those presents!
