Christmas Eve Eve

Christmas Eve Eve has sort of turned into the time when we celebrate with Gramma, Granddad Mike and Uncle Justin...which has been great to have a day or night devoted just to enjoy each other’s company and give and open all of our presents before all of hustle and bustle of multiple places, traveling, cooking, presents, etc.  This year we went to Cracker Barrel for dinner and took Miss Priss to see the Christmas lights at Mike Miller Park before going home to open presents.  Charley definitely makes opening presents extra fun...don’t get me wrong, a few years ago Gramma was so excited she did a toe-touch, so things were fun then, too...but seeing everything through Charley’s eyes puts a whole new sense of “magic” back in Christmas...and who doesn’t love magic!?!





Not sure why any of us got Charley anything other than “num-num’s” (M&M’s), but her stocking was filled with great stuff...a cute purse, num-nums, “prempess” stickers, Minnie Mouse puzzle, Minnie Mouse pez, Minnie Mouse camera and Minnie Mouse jammies...everything was super cute!!! (Gramma and Granddad Mike (mainly Gramma) always have the BEST stocking!!!)

Charley gave Uncle Justin Tervis Tumblers for his apartment.  
Granddad Mike has been on a mission to get Charley a cap since she loves his...little did he know, Charley got them coordinating caps...his was camo Under-Armour and her’s was camo and says “Too cute in camo!”  He LOVED it!

Gramma’s present from Charley was a little extra special since it was her Gramma/Nanny present!  It was basically a stocking in a box including JS silver earrings, MAC eye shadows, “Blessed” bracelet, long white cami, and the finale was Tory Burch studs!  Gramma LOVED hers too!

Craig had an extra special Christmas and got a Keurig, cologne, boxers, socks,  another pocket knife, a “cool” shirt,  Dunkin’ Donut K-cups, safe, and money for our new TV (aka the money pit, but that’s a whole other story!)  He also got Polo jammie pants from Justin that he loves!
I had the best Christmas (like always) and got a new lamp for the house, this awesome vase, Juicy perfume, money for the never-ending TV, fab earrings, MAC pallet, lipgloss, PINK tunic sweatshirt,  and a Juicy scarf.  Justin got me Fiesta mugs, which are perfect for the Keurig!

I almost forgot...I just mentioned Charley’s stocking...Uncle Justin got her a new stool for her bathroom (which she loves a little too much and we constantly catch her “brushing her teeth” aka eating the toothpaste), and Gramma and Granddad went a little overboard and got her a Minnie Mouse 4-wheeler (that she drives straight into the wall of her playroom :), the clubhouse to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, play food for her kitchen and a Minnie Mouse get-ready set with all things girlie.  Its a good thing that Gramma and Granddad had already planned on going back home with us, otherwise we wouldn’t have made it back with all of our stuff from our first get-together!  Merry Christmas Eve Eve!
