The Week of CHRISTMAS

We had a Merry Christmas and hope you all had the same. This is a bunch of the pictures from The week of Christmas. I had the week off and we had some good times as a family. Russell loved unwrapping his presents and kept trying to eat the paper. Once he could see what was inside he started playing with out even noticing there was still wrapping paper on the present. Funny boy!

Christmas morning. Russell loves looking at (and trying to touch) the Christmas tree



Russell's favorite present was a duck from G&G Johnson that fights and makes a fuss when lifted by its head. He gets a kick out of attacking it.

Russell missed his nap waiting in line to see Santa and told him all he wanted for Christmas was sleep. (Which miraculously he got and slept all night Christmas Eve.)

We went for a hike to Red Rock Canyon and the weather was perfect.

The lights at Ethel M Chocolate factory and Cactus garden are a family tradition.

We set up a tent in the front room, and Russell was in Heaven.
