Our own family celebration seems to be tucked in between other celebrations, which works pretty well. Due to time constraints that come along with trying to pack tons in a day we had Joshua do his stocking on Christmas eve morning and his gifts from us on Christmas morning. He loved his little surprises in his stocking, especially the pretend camera (a re-do of the same camera I had as a child) and the Insta-snow! For those of you who aren't aware there is this cool stuff out there called Insta-Snow that is a powdered polymer that when mixed with water expands into a cool, white,fluffy substance that can be played with. Just click on the link and you will see a demonstration by its creator. Joshua also enjoyed opening his gifts. He was so good about choosing a gift and after opening it playing with it for a while. We actually had to prompt him to open another gift! I over bought for him this year because I started picking up things in November and just tossed them in the storage closet. When I went to wrap everything I realized it was a bit much given that he gets so much from others as well. We gave him a Moon Sand set, a puzzle, two books, the Leapfrog Word Whammer, Candyland Castle game, Chutes and Ladders, a Tic-Tac-Toe game, and a John Deere semi truck with a trailer and digger. We enjoyed making some Christmas memories as a little family!
