Merry Christmas!!!

Hello Everybody. Well after another marathon day of shopping yesterday, we finally finished, and wrapped the gifts late last night. This morning, the family got together for a Chan breakfast. Brian made his cream cheese stuffed french toast with strawberry puree. Rich made bacon and eggs. It was good eatins before church at 11AM.

Church service was good at my parent's ward, Soos Creek.

After church, we had lunch with our grandparents in Chinatown. Even though we were still full (and being Sunday), we went to Chinagate for dim sum. These weekly get togethers give Gpa and Gma Ma a chance to cuddle, catch up on the times, and steal napkins for grandma.


We finally got around to opening presents late in the day, and these pictures show how happy the nieces (Kaitlin and Nicole) were.





Look at all the cool presents that Rebecca got!


Thanks to all of our family for the gifts. We missed having Josh and Lisa here with us this year, but I'm sure they'll join us next year.

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Early Christmas at the Chan's

Josh and Lisa will be heading East for Christmas, so we started our gift exchange early. Well, at least they gave us our gifts first...... Rebecca and I have a family tradition of waiting until Christmas Eve to do our shopping.

Rich, Juli, Kaitlin, and Nicole all arrived here today. Kaitie and Nicole are so cute!

Thanks to Josh and Lisa for our gift certificate to Seattle Glassblowing Company! We get to choose something nice for our new condo in Belltown!

Well, time for bed. We have a lot of shopping coming up the next two days!
