Justin decorated our tree and wrapped all the presents under it.
What a beautiful tree and the presents were great to wake up to this morning.
We never want Mom to know what she is getting for Christmas.
Mom always unwraps things slow, I guess to savor the moment.
It wasn't a replica of our tractor. I think she likes it.
Wow. She got a Nook Book. I don't think she was expecting to get a Nook although we knew she wanted one. She then asked me if I got her a Nook cover. I told her they were too expensive, I couldn't afford both. She said she understood.
"Hey! No wonder you didn't buy me a cover, My daughter got me one. I love it"
It is red.
I can tell you.
My turn to open a gift from Benita.
They tied the stupid tie string in a knot that I could not untie. Benita had it done in a second.
Well, I was really surprised. Several years ago I had a bread baking machine. I made some bread that was a flop and the bread look awful also. I left the bread on the counter and left the ugly bread on the cooling rack to cool before removing the mixing device. Benita sat the ugly bread and threw it in the trash and by the time I returned home the garbage collection people had it picked up and gone. Every time we went to a store after that I would show her a bread baking oven and remind her I did not have one. This one is better than the first and now I will start baking bread again. I love home baked fresh bread.
What an idea I had. Benita ordered a instruction DVD about how to do some type of sewing. It came in December 23 and I just put a bow on it and put it under the tree. This is the first she saw it.
Benita loves dragonflies. She has several different kinds around the house. Justin gave here these wall hanging dragonflies. There are 24 dragonflies she can hang on the wall.
Benita opened the next gift from me. It is a LG solar powered hand free device for her car so she can talk on the phone without hanging on to the phone. She can also call numbers by saying the name or number.
This is something she asked for. A cell telephone charger so she can charge her phone in her car.
Justin got her a beautiful necklace. Another unexpected surprise.
This is something I have never seen before. A stainless steal wallet. Guaranteed not to wear out.
I just opened a aluminum credit card wallet. I wanted something other than another leather wallet for my back pocket. This one is OSU orange... Go Cowboys.
I have collected Police replicas of all kinds for several years now. This is the first police nutcracker I have ever seen. I love it and it will look good in my collection. Thank you Justin.
After all presents were opened, Justin was off to work, Benita was back asleep, my daughter called me on Skipe and we visited. I got to see most of their Christmas Presents. We will get together on Skipe again tonight and I will get to see everything.
Merry Christmas everyone. I am blessed with such a wonderful family.
