Christmas 2005

Can you believe this? Our house was quiet until 8:03 AM on Christmas morning. After a late night of opening gifts, Allison was tuckered out. We had to prod her out of bed. She started with her stocking and quickly transitioned to her Santa gifts. She unwrapped a Dora 5-in-1 tent and spent the morning playing adventurer. The Christmas buffet came to a close with a group picture in-front of the fireplace. Allison and Alex spent the afternoon opening their final round of gifts. Allison played dress up while Alex leaned back on Grandma Isham for help, support, and entertainment. As we wound down the night, we visited the Smith Family. Allison spent a final moment with Godmother Katie (Aunt Ki-Ki) before we braved the wet outdoor elements. It was raining cats and dogs! To see the full photo album, click here.
