Morgan picked the gift from Aunt Barbara, Uncle Michael, and Christopher. She told me she was going to wear all of this to church next Sunday. She would also stretch her hand out, palm down, and ask us to kiss the back of her hand.
Hailey picked a gift from Grandpa and Grandma Simmons. A shirt with sparkels! Loved it! Already laid out ready to put on tomorrow.
Taylor also picked a gift from the Simmons grandparents. What more could an almost 14 year old girl want besides a small suitcase full of makeup?
Chase got a bag of some of his favorite snacks: pistachios! Does he look happy?But the most excitement came when a small brown mouse was spotted running in the house! Luckily we had been to a white elephant family Christmas party the night before. Thanks to Steve's shrewd bargaining skills, he was able to take home these binoculars, with a light! And the hunt began.......
Alas, the little brown mouse was no match for The Great White Hunter. But the rest of us will have a peaceful sleep this Christmas Eve, knowing the mouse is no more. Our Hero!

Oh this was a great post! Steve is so cool. I love all the gifts and can't wait to hear about Christmas day.
So you're saying,"not a creature was stirring, not even a....."
Whoa! Good thing Steve is such an excellent hunter - and so brave! What perfect gifts for everyone. Hope you all have a very merry Christmas.
I so wasn't expecting that last pick...Jen could tell you about my phobias. What a fun memory and cute family!
Does the National Rifle Association have a picture of this? Send it to them. Great for public relations.
