Christmas 2011 Part Five, 2nd Christmas

Because we were in Montana for Christmas proper, we planned a second Christmas with Grandma Joyce to open her gifts as well as the ones from Canada. This all took place on December 31st.
We started with what looked like a big fun present from Grandma Joyce.
Turns out it was a new snowsuit. You can see how excited Matthew is about it.
A present of little cars was much better received.
The plumber's crack we got glimpses of all afternoon.
We made Grandma Joyce wait until the very end to open her gift. We knew she would be excited and wanted to build the anticipation but I think she was trying not to get her hopes up and seemed very calm until she saw what it was.
Yup, she even did a little dance in it.
The end of the gift opening. We made quite a mess but its nice and clean under the tree!
We finished off the afternoon sitting quietly reading/listening to the recorded book from Claire and Daniel.
Thank you so much for all of the wonderful gifts, we have been enjoying them immensely.
