Merry Christmas

A couple of pictures from Christmas morning. The first "socks" I ever knit were Christmas stockings, a red one and a green one. They are huge and stretch when gifts are placed inside. The kids think they are the best stockings ever but I often find it hard to fill them up. Placing bags of socks and underwear in the bottom seems to help.
We went with the rhyme again this year. Something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read. The want is always the most difficult because we already have so much. But ST needed new volleyball knee pads and wanted a nice volleyball. TT needed new pj's because he had outgrown most of his old ones.
Books were the easiest because of the book fair at school, the kids had already picked out a large amount of reading materials.
