This was your very first Christmas! We celebrated on Christmas Eve at our house with the Starr family. Grams, Pops, Uncle Caleb, Aunt Jenn, Jordan, Tatum, and Alex all came over. We ate sandwiches and desserts and opened presents together. You wore a Gap bodysuit and a little ruffled skirt that had tights attached.
On Christmas Day we opened presents at our house in the morning. You were more fascinated with the wrapping paper than anything else. Then we headed over to Nana & Grandpa's to be with the whole Palmer family. After we ate breakfast and opened presents there we went out to Grams' & Pops' house to be with Grams' family. And of course on Christmas night we were back at Nana's for Grandpa's and Aunt Jess's birthday celebration. What a busy day!
Nana always gives you new pajamas inside a new pillow case on Christmas Eve. This year the pajamas were fuzzy purple footed pajamas. She made you a tiny pillow from her special favorite pillow that she had had for years. And she made a cute pink and purple flannel pillow case too.
