Xmas morning

Phil and I wondered on Christmas Eve whether we would wake up before the kids as happened last year or whether the kids would wake us up.

At 2:07! Naomi came in to our room and said "Mommy, you have to get up and we should open presents." Of course I said it was too early and she said "But Mommy, Santa has already been here!" She did eventually go back to bed without too much protest. She and her sister were up at 6:00 ready to rumble.

Kitchen

We've made you wait long enough. The kitchen/great room renovation isn't done yet but it's close enough. You can see what it looks like from the pictures of Phil from this morning. We are loving it and it is far more beautiful than I imagined it would be.

White Christmas

Merry Christmas!

Have a happy day!

Preparing for Santa

Last night and this morning Naomi told us, "Make sure you have all the painting and construction stuff cleaned up before Christmas Eve!" (We have a pile of supplies on the hearth.)

Are we still in Washington?

Yes! Believe it or not!
