Kyla, Jon and I went to my parents house on the Saturday before Christmas to celebrate Christmas early before heading to Seattle. We had a crab dinner and opened tons of presents! We gave the majority of the presents that we got for Kyla to her eatly so that we were not taking so much on our trip. Kyla was so excited to open presents this year, and very quick too! She would hurry and grab a present and rip every last piece of paper on it and throw the paper and then throw the present and would move on to the next one. She ended up unwrapping all of her presents fairly quickly and then once they were all unwrapped had fun playing with all her new toys.

Jon and I bought Kyla two stuffed animal kittens, several board games and card games, a few puzzles, lots of art supplies (finger paints, water colors, colored pencils, papers and stickers), clothes, pajamas, a Disneyland piggy back, jewelry, all three Tinkerbell movies, jewelry, a princess stool and many other little things. From Grandma and Grandpa Kyla received clothes, a baby doll, a doll bed and high chair, blankets, pillows and bibs for her dolls, a princess flashlight and lots and lots of lipstick, a princess toiletry set, a jewelry box, a Christmas movie and more. From Ethan and Ella Kyla was given a camera! Jon was just as excited as Kyla.

Kyla also got a stuffed animal puppy from Uncle Paul and Aunt Diana, Clothes, a book, a snow globe and a princess art set from Aunt Lynn and her family.

Kyla came home with a ton of new stuff and then we left the next day for vacation. She will be happy to return home from vacation to so many new toys at home. We had a really fun early Christmas night and although we will miss my family for Christmas we are very excited to go to Seattle to spend Christmas with Jon's family!
