Followed by a comedic puppet show with hostess Victoria telling hilarious jokes such as, "Knock-knock," "Who's there?" "Justin." "Justin who?" "Just in time for dinner!!!" Literally HOURS worth of entertainment. And truthfully, an annual tradition that I know I will long desperately for when these girls are too cool or just too busy to think it all up in the years to come (sniff).
Justice liked his presents fine. For him, though, the truly best part of Christmas was the extended time with his "famous" (aka 'favorite') cousin Aubrie, age 5. He is enthralled with her.
My children are pretty spoiled at Christmas time. They made me proud this year though, bubbling over with appreciation (especially Victoria), eager to see the gifts they picked out for others opened and enjoyed (especially Victoria), and really valuing time with family above all (especially Victoria...okay, so I was really proud of Victoria). It was a fantastic holiday and as I have said time and time again, I am so blessed.
Yes I saw this and thought "Aw Jenna, your girl is growing up so fast."
