On the morning of Sunday, December 16, 2007, John, Emily, Ansley, Bailey, and I made our way over to Mom’s house around 10:30. When we arrived we were greeted by Mom. We made our way in the house and all settled in the living room for the kids to play. It was very nice to have the time to let the kids play and visit. While we were playing, Dave and John worked on the oven. For some reason it was not lighting. Since Emily mentioned being cold, Mom had a very special present for her to open. It was Emily’s very own electric blanket. Mom had gotten this since Emily had fallen in love with Mom’s electric blanket that was down at the lake house. Emily snuggled on the couch with John, while the babies played and I tried to help Mom with dinner. Around 12, Laura, Alyssa, Ashton, and a friend of Alyssa’s arrived. All the kids played until Matt, Jennifer, Nicholas, Claire, and Jeoff (Jennifer’s parents) arrived. They came in a visited for a little bit until it was time for lunch. All the kids, John, and I ate in the kitchen and played. Since it was getting late for all of the girls, we quickly let all the kids open their presents. Emily got her electric blanket and color wonder markers and pad from Mom. Ansley and Bailey got very cute Push along toys in the shapes of animals. John and I were given a termite treatment for the house. In addition, Clare gave Ansley and Bailey sweaters and hats she had knit and gave Emily a scarf she knitted. After the kids opened their presents we had to pack up and head home.
