So we didn't take any pictures this Christmas. It makes me sad but it was utter chaos at the Nelson home. Jason and Karen came down the week before Christmas and went on a cruise leaving their adorable children with grandma and grandpa. Since we live with grandma and grandpa we were able to hang out and tried to come up with some fun stuff to do. Amy, being a fabulous aunt with an abundance of vacation days, came down to help out. Eliza loved playing with her cousins. We went to a Christmas party; played Just Dance 2; created sock snowmen, bracelets, lanyards, tie dye shirts, angels from kisses, and Christmas trees with construction paper, sequins, and buttons; went to look at Christmas Lights; went to Rocket Fizz; Met Bryan, Michi, Miya, Ty & Silas at the Santa Barbara Zoo; etc. Needless to say we had fun.When Jason and Karen came back from the cruise Steve, Eliza, and I went to my families house to kick Micaela out of her room until Jason left. It was pretty quiet at my parents house and we were able to relax and visit with my family.
Eliza got soooo many gifts. Santa got her a 6 ft long floor piano. Pretty cool. She also got a rocking horse, books, puzzles, clothes, bath stuff, a huge cardboard castle that you color yourself, a toy cell phone, a Muno doll (yo gabba gabba), a baby doll etc. Too many things to list. She is one lucky little girl. We did Christmas morning with Steve's family and with so many people and gifts Eliza was pretty overwhelmed. We had to open her Christmas presents in waves. It took all day. We then had Christmas dinner with my family. The day was great and it was nice to have Kim at my parents house for Christmas.
