Christmas in Cleveland

Christmas Morning

Next year, we will give the kids a TOY as the first gift to open.  Oops.

Cheese!

Playing "Dr Dino" with their new doctor kit.

What good helpers!

Maw Maw made Avery a "spider web" out of a basketball net to go along with his spider man glove.

Shooting webs.

It's SpiderMan himself!!

Kayla won't be left behind!

Kayla loves her new Abby and Minnie Mouse dolls.  They are her BFF's.

Snuggle time with my girl.

Kayla and her new Minnie Mouse backpack...now she can be just like her big brother!

A kid's camera, so Avery can continue to perfect his photography skills, without breaking mine!

As soon as Kayla opened this outfit from Aunt Luz and Uncle Jon Jon, she just HAD to put it on.  "Jacket?  Jacket?"

The kids with their new racetrack.

Posing in front of the tree.  Pop Pop's flash is obviously much better than mine.

Kayla with her new dragon toy that Avery picked out just for her (and Kayla's slippers....NOT a toy, Haley!).

Kayla petting her doggy toy that Avery picked out just for her.

Awww...hold me, it's Christmas!!

Avery taking a picture of Pop Pop.

I put the kids' church outfits back on to try to get a family photo again.  Umm....this was not what I had in mind, kids.

Uncle Norm, we will ship your new best friend right to ya!

Haley had some competition for Uncle Norm's attention!!

Grandma Speck checking out Avery's Spider Man glove.  Avery loves his "Gwamma Speck".

Four generations of (strong-willed) Becka/Speck/Sattelmeyer/Jean women.

OMG.  What an exhausting day!!  I am getting stressed out thinking that just 8 hours after this picture was taken, we were pulling out of the driveway at 2:45am for the 14 hour car ride back to Charleston.  Someone buy me a plane!
