Bonjour,
The kids were up early this morning waiting for Daddy to get home with Nana and Papa. We did some last minute cleaning.
Joe and his parents got here about 10:40. We were so happy to see them.
I finished lunch preparations. After lunch, Papa, Nana, and the kids took a nap.
After naps, Joe, Papa, and the kids went outside while Nana and I wrapped presents. They had those four suitcases full of goodies! When they were ready to come inside, we were still wrapping. So, they went to get Lebanese pizza for supper. They got stuck behind a masquerade parade on the way home.
While Nana wrapped my presents, I refilled the water filter and made brownies. Nana was just finishing up wrapping when the others got home.
We had supper and then had Christmas. There were so many presents! Everyone got lots of good stuff. Everyone played and played after we finished. The kids did not go to bed until 10:30.

I don’t know who had more fun with the remote control cars – the boys or Joe and Papa.
