Christmas

Per tradition, we made our annual Christmas mecca to San Dimas. This is the first year that Holden really "got" the whole Christmas thing, but not entirely. The Santa Claus concept was a little lost on him, and scary, too. He needed a little convincing to start opening presents, but soon got on a roll. He only got slightly side-tracked by wanting to play with the gifts he was opening, and took a keen interest in Grandpa Steve's new books, for some reason.

Some Christmas Eve stories with Grandma Sheila.

Digging for treasures.

Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Larry came for Christmas dinner.
