The Christmas House (Hanukah and Christmas 2011, part 3)

We celebrated most of Hanukah at the "Christmas House" we rented this year on the Chesapeake Bay.

Of course, we also celebrated Christmas at the Christmas house! Here, Lucas and I are getting down to business opening gifts as Grandaddy plays Santa.

Oh, cool, Lion King! My first love, you'll remember, before knights and superheroes and BeyBlade, was lions.

Daddy got this cool towel. Wait, maybe that was for Ari Zev?

Meme got a calendar...

And Zula and Oliver had way too much fun together. (Thanks to Auntie Bridget for these great shots!)

Ari Zev really liked hanging out on Zula's giant new bear.
