It's the big morning and everyone is ready to start tearing presents open. The excitement is nearly unbearable, but the wait is finally over. Plenty of great stuff this year including a new bike rack for Charlotte, a new scanner for me (and the website), lots of handmade scarves, movies, games, software, and music. I'm looking forward to getting back to loads of scanning.

Even Abby got a new hedgehog.

Val came over with her boys, though Kim was coming down with something and couldn't make it. Charlotte's friend Kim joined us this year in place of the sick Kim. We tried something a bit new this year for dinner, lasagna. It was a big hit, and will likely show up again in future Christmas dinners.
