Dec. 25 - Christmas Day at G & G Catey's

Christmas Day at G & G Catey's

We arrived and the present opening started almost immediately! Barbie in the Christmas Carol DVD for Natalie, just what she was waiting for!


We gave Sidney a tea set too! Well, actually, technically, Santa brought Amanda's!


She loved the tea set! We are looking forward to some special Tea Parties!


We got Grandpa organizational accessories for his office


Gigi enjoys Christmas w/the family


Ryan wouldn't let go of his Handy Manny doll


We introduced Sidney to the Fancy Nancy craze!


Design-a-purse for the girls from Aunt Sherry and the girls - so girly!


Grandma reads the wording in the pretty matching frame that we gave her w/her Blessing Cup...tears. The Blessing Cup is something that you fill w/a beverage at any gathering and pass around and each person takes a sip and says something they are thankful for at that time. It was the perfect gift for Grandma....she had tears.....and she got it out for dinner that day and we passed it around the table and shared our blessings, some serious, some not....but a way to bond as a family and take time to appreciate the things we have.


A BIG gift for all 3 kids from Aunt Sherry and the girls


Ewww...a fancy wardrobe for their doll clothes - beautiful!


Ryan is lovin' his dancing Handy Manny Tool Set from G&G.


Chicago Bears growth chart from Uncle Shaun to Ry! Too cute!


Amanda LOVESSSSS her Uncle Shaun! And Uncle Shaun lovesssss Amanda!


Flat Screen Lite Brite for Natalie from Uncle Shaun - so cool!


Uncle Shaun and Amanda can't get enough of each other, Ryan too!


Grandpa snuggles Amanda before it's time to go....it's been a long day, but so fun!

We had a wonderful time relaxing the day away and having a nice dinner. It's been so nice having Aunt Sherry and the girls around to share all of these holidays and memories with too. Of course, having Gigi there was another special gift. We will be celebrating w/Steve, Paige and the kids tomorrow....one branch of the family is missing and I hope someday we can ALL share a Christmas together.....family is first....#1......and we wish we had everyone there, together, making memories........some day perhaps...some day?!?!
