Watching my family's amazement with Silly Bandz.
This was the first thing we opened and it took about 10 minutes before they got over them and move on.

Laughing when Rena, my Step Mom, opened the dancing elf hat 'gag' gift that gets passed around the family every year. She didn't see it coming!

I hope all you East Coasters are staying Safe and Warm in the storm and snow!

  1. What great Christmas moments! All of the decorations are beautiful. I think a Grrr themed Christmas is a great idea. That's hilarious that your family was so amazed by Silly Bandz, I love those things. And I used to play trumpet in highschool so I totally appreciate the Christmas Carol trumpet players.

    My favourite family Christmas tradition is the gift exchange around the dinner table.

  4. Those are great pics! :) Where I live, we were supposed to get 14-18 inches of snow, but we didn't touch that... thank goodness! I ended up with the day off from work and not that much snow to shovel. So it was a good thing!
