Santa came to Tata and Grammy's house too!!

The Grassman Family Christmas Party! It has been five years since I have been there for a family Christmas.... it meant so much to me to be able to spend time with everyone! I don't think that Rhett quite knew what to do with himself. There were so many little girls!!! (my cousin's kids) Whoohoo... he is such a flirt and attention hog!!!

Rhett with his great grandpa Grassman, who is doing great after his heart surgery!

Rhett loves his uncle Chris :)
Bonnie, Erin, Livy, Monica, Sue and Connor

Our 'second' Christmas morning.....

Dad gave Rhett his first Tonka dump truck, just like Grandpa Grassman gave Chris his first Tonka truck :)

I think santa went a little crazy!!! Look at all those gifts... Rhett was loving it!
mmmmmmmm! What a morning :)

Christmas Morning

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Waking up with his morning sippy of milk. He was so content and was in no rush whatsoever to open his gifts. In fact, I had to open most of them for him. Funny that the gift he was most excited about was an 88 cent toy cell phone I picked up at the last minute at Walmart. Ha!!
Connecting the webcam with Tata and GrammyLia... we were on it for almost 3 hours!! Rhett just can't keep his little fingers off the keyboard, so it makes it difficult. We had to cover the keys with a magazine, but he is a little too smart for that. Eventually we had to hide the computer and just set out the camera where he could not see it!
One of his gifts just had to be a 'German made' dozer ;) He is sitting in his new radio flyer wagon!

Christmas morning was wonderful. We were in our Pj's until almost noon. We opened presents with my parents in FL on the webcam. For lunch we went to Mike's parents for lunch. Marion made a beautiful Goose! (very hard to get in hawaii!) That evening I spent packing... we left for FL the next day.

Christmas Eve at Our House

Rhett got a haircut from his Opa Kost on Christmas Eve before dinner. He looks so much older now! :(

Rhett loved playing with his cousin Rebekah's new tea set.
Alex loved his inflatable Superman muscles... so funny!!!

Oma Kost and her new grandbaby, Isaiah
Presents!

We hosted our Kost family Christmas Eve dinner at our home this year. It was a seafood theme... yummy!!! I made a macadamia crusted Ono with Mango butter as the main dish. Side dishes were "green" mashed potatoes, shrimp cups, salmon pesto spread, lobster bisque, salad, crudites.... and don't get me started on the deserts!!!

We had a wonderful afternoon and enjoyed the time spent with family... especially the newest member of our family, little Isaiah :)
