We had to get the girls up, especially Cora, so we could enjoy them opening their stockings and gifts.
Don't mind my face - I think I'm chewing here.
We gave Cora a lovely illustrated map of the world of Lord of the Rings. (She also had a laptop, pretty darn needed to replace the one she received five years ago.) 
Later, the family all came over, and while Mel and I cooked, the girls spent time with Sebastian in my room. Ellie is playing a game on Violet's iPad.
The prime rib came out well.
The girls had scattered before I thought to take a photo, but here we are. We're blessed to have two leaves to our dining room table, so we can easily seat all of us.
Gift time!
Stace is excited to build this V-22 Osprey Cobi kit, like Legos.
Violet had a beautiful adult bike, the look she likes but with seven gears.
(And, clearly, we need one more cat so Stace isn't left out!)
