Christmas in Baltimore

The Christmas gifts sitting under the tree back home made it a little easier to get over our sadness of leaving family behind in Ohio. After a long day of travel, we got home, unpacked the car, and then got right down to opening presents.  Some of the favorites were:

an Adam Jones jersey for Xander;

Ooka the monkey for Noah (he has been checking this monkey out of the library for months and I finally found one for sale at Barnes and Noble);

more Monster High for Savannah;

beef jerky for David (from Savannah - too sweet!);

and sleeping bags for all the kids from Grandma and Grandpa Pierce. There are big plans for camping this next year!
