Christmas Morning In Red Bluff
/Francie says ""I TOLD YOU I DON'T DO GROUP PHOTOS!!!"
... More pictures from Christmas Part II in Red Bluff with all of the Heffernans!! We woke up for a big breakfast and pushed all the couches back for exchanging presents and watching the kiddies open their gifts. It is always fun to re-live Christmas again :) Francie had fun and was only a little overwhelmed by the end of it. It took all morning and was followed quickly by naps... then the pony rides and chicken coop building project ensued.

Learning to take turns... we let them duke it out until someone cries :)

Sisterly love from Kate and Ellie
I wasn't quick enough to catch this very rare "Cheese!" for the camera
One more try on the group photo... nope, not a chance.

Andrea got the girls all Christmas Tu-tus!!! These were a huge hit and hardly left theit little waists all weekend
Oma bought the girls all matching Western Wear outfits... "check out this belt mom!"
Francie really wanted to tell Opa about her new belt but he was snoozing through the craziness
She told him all about it anyway
Andrea also unbelievably hand made this family tree for Oma and Opa!! It is gorgeous... she drew the tree on Illustrator, Craig jig-sawed it out from a piece of Oak, she researched all of the family names and dates, gathered the pictures and put together this tree for Claire and Tom. You are amazing Andrea :)
It is so neat to look at over and over
Oma bedazzled little book bags for all the girls! They had their own little Swap Ellie orchestrated to trade books each oth them already had :)
Kate was busy drawing on herself with her new face paint crayons from Aunt Sarah
Ellie helped make sure she covered every inch
Izza in her beloved new tu-tu... she slept in it straight through for two days
Giving some love to Baby Patrick
"I just love him so much I can't contain myself!!"
