Christmas 2008

A Johnstown Christmas

Grandma and Grandpa went to the Maritimes for Christmas but when they came back, there were of course more presents for the kids to open. There were also gifts from Auntie Christine and of course Grandpa and Grandma had been busy knitting and woodworking again.

Samantha gives Grandpa his traditional Christmas gift of jelly beans.

Cheese!

Poppa helps Christopher open some of his gifts.

Samantha is a big girl so she can open her presents herself.

Grandma is excited to get her new photo calendar from the grandkids.

I wonder what's in this one?

Samantha was literally jumping up and down with excitement when grandpa unveiled the wooden toy chest he had made her.

Grandpa also made a present for Christopher and Rubby takes mental note to give Grandpa a level for Christmas next year. ;-) Then grandpa demonstrates how the back of the chair is actually a track for marbles to roll down.

Samantha got a new kitchen from auntie Christine.

Of course, Christopher is also an aspiring chef!

Samantha plays 'twinkle, twinkle, little star' on grandma's new piano.
