Christmas with My Family

Christmas morning started off with Paul and I opening presents at my house for the pets. This is about the only picture I got of the pets opening presents, the rest is video I'll post later on tonight hopefully.

Simon takes one of the fur-mice that he and Aiden got as gifts (of course, after Paul opened the present for them, Cats cannot be bothered to open their own gifts of course).

One costume change later (since I got Paul a new shirt for Christmas, he had to wear it. And they say women change clothes more than men LOL)

Paul models his new shirt at my grandparents house. It is the Kazakstan flag and says "Kazackstan. . . it's NICE!"(from Borat LOL that movie is so horrible you feel bad for laughing at it)

Paul thoughtfully ponders the name on the gift before passing it to my sister.

Diana opens a gift

She's one of those people who methodically tears off the paper, then opens the box. . . removes the tissue. . . all orderly. I think she got it from my grandpa LOL

Who took forever pulling the ribbon off before opening the wrapping paper at the tapped areas.

after he pulled the ribbon off he decided to wear it. Methinks there is an unwritten rule in the grandparent code that christmas ribbon is a must have head wear.

Grandma opens a present.

Grandpa opens another gift, but much less 'OCD' after we laughed at him the first time LOL

Grandma opens another gift and is wearing the ribbon from the first gift as per the grandparent christmas code LOL

My brother joey taking a picture of me . . . little did he know I was also taking a picture of him.

Grandpa sneeks some cashews while he thinks everyone is not paying attention to him.

Paul opens a present now. .

Paul opts for the rip and shred method of unwrapping. .

Out comes an Ohio State leather Jacket. . .

Oh my god its an actual smile and not a goofy face! I think he really likes it!

Paul passes joey a present

No need to even upwrap the box, just tear it open!

somewhere underneith the leather jacket is a happy brother. . . thanks mom for clueing me into what to get him LOL

Can't leave Bruce out!

Or Eve. . .

Maya wants to know why Eve didn't get her a Christmas present. I tried to reason with Maya that she got a ton of presents earlier in the day. . but she being the spoiled brat she is demanded more.

Luckily for Eve she also acccepts playtime as presents. . .

"Seriously. . . are you done taking pictures yet?" Bruce shows his serious side, and the fact that he's tired of me taking pictures. . . 

And thats all from our family at christmas! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and a safe and happy new year! Be safe tomorrow night everyone!
