Gifts

Russell sings Jingle Bells.... Hey! (just like his Mom did as a baby). He also made up a song about Home Depot and WalMart. Oh, my....

Christmas morning memories: The Bishop girls did a great job of reciting the Christmas story, as has become our tradition before opening the gifts.

Russell was thrilled with his first full-sized basketball (from the Bishops). He used it as his chair, moving it and plopping down wherever he wanted to be. When Ross wanted to share the ball, Russell momentarily left the living room. He returned with a tennis ball which he handed to Ross, proclaiming, "That my ball. You use 'dis ball!"

The Bishops gifted us with neat cell phone charger/organizers. Bill got his first. I was so excited when we opened ours up later. Elisabeth chuckled when I said, "I've been wanting one of those for about an hour!"
