I guess I will just try and give a run down of the whole 5 day experience (yes - you read it - 5 DAYS!!) Can we say "present high" for the boys? They wake up now asking - "Where are the presents?"
We started our Christmas 2007 Tour at my parents River House. My extended family (except the Simmons) were all there -- even my Uncle Burrell -- we haven't seen him in 8 years. We were sooo glad he shared this experience with us. My boys LOVED HIM!!!
We got there around noon on Sat. to a huge Christmas Dinner. Then after we cleaned up, took naps, and eyed the gifts -- we decided to tackle that 2 hour task. The boys enjoy "shopping" in my "recycled" gifts for the family. They enjoyed passing out these gifts to family members. Oh - I forgot to mention -- Barrett decorated the bags himself - and his clothes - and my carpet. We don't do well with markers just yet.
The first gift of the night was to cousin Em. She looks real excited doesn't she? Not real sure, but I think she hated that bubble wrap that Barrett was enjoying soo much!
Here is one with their Gigi - Barrett was very proud of this gift -- he even wrapped it!
My grandaddy loved his special gift from his "Jim Barrett" as he calls him!
