Christmas in Seattle

We spent Chistmas with the Wallace family in Seattle.  Grandmaman and Pappy flew up from Florida and we all stayed at my brother's new house in West Seattle.  Priya had a blast watching the ferries go back and forth between the West Seattle dock near my brother's house and nearby Vashon Island.  Luckily, we had one day where the clouds lifted and we could see the Olympic Mountains across the Puget Sound.



Priya had a hard time not opening gifts before it was time.  Pappy kept a close eye on her though:





Finally, it was Christmas morning and Priya set to opening everybody's gifts for them.  She was an unwrapping machine.  She would open one gift and then ask for another:  "Another gift!".  The only thing that stopped her was her new Dora the Explorer backpack:




Here she helps unwrap some more gifts while wearing her new hair clips that Santa brought her by way of the Mattas.





Mira was forced to look on from the sidelines - not quite ready for action.  By next year she will probably give her sister a hand.
