Christmas 2024

 We had a nice Christmas this year.

Christmas Eve dinner. After dinner and a devotional, we drove around the neighborhood to look at Christmas lights. We looked for Santas and counted 104 of them!

U and Me stockings

Megan and Matthew stockings

The whole room including the tree.

Santa's letter

Me with her stocking.

U with his stocking.

Mini figure family: Matthew, Me, U, Megan

Matthew started working on his new Star Wars Legos right away. Other clone troopers came down to protect the build and make sure nothing got stolen.

Megan also started building her Legos.

Close up of Porte de Hal that Megan and Matthew made for Me. They even included little rocks from Porte de Hal!

U with his gifts.

Matthew and Megan with the family gifts.

U, Me, Matthew and Megan showing off our Yukatas and Thread bags. U and Matthew's Thread bags are prototypes of a water bottle bag and are not available to buy yet.

And they are back to building Legos....

We headed down to Tucson to see Sarah, Champion and Lionheart.

U, Lionheart (who was very interested in looking at U), Me, Matthew, Megan, Sarah, Champion

Switching Lionheart to the other hip to see if he would look forward....

Lionheart opening his gifts. Or rather grabbing the tissue paper.

Champion showing one of Lionheart's new outfits.

Oooooo! A bag!

Yummy ornament.

Champion wearing his Yukata.

Sarah opening some of her Christmas gifts.

Lionheart showing off his standing skills! He is a strong little boy! It is not surprising given how strong Sarah was as a baby.

Lionheart and Grandpa. Lionheart was really fascinated by that ball.

Lionheart likes grabbing faces.

Megan and Champion playing chess. Megan was very excited she got him in "check" even though Champion ultimately won the game. Matthew also played Champion.
