We had a very relaxed Christmas at home this year just the three of us (and the dogs).
On Christmas morning, we opened presents.
Santa gave Beatrice a play kitchen.
Beatrice adored the kitchen and spent the entire rest of the day using it - mainly pretending to wash things in the sink, including food, dishes, and her hands.
Naresh gave Beatrice a very realistic toy vacuum cleaner with which she thoroughly vacuumed every room in the house.
At night Lucas and Veronika came over for a dinner of French onion soup, roast leg of lamb, mashed potatoes, and peas, with apple-cranberry and mincemeat pies for dessert. The mincemeat pie (Dev's special request this year) took five hours to make, but I must say, it turned out very well.

Then we all played Rock Band, one of our Kumar family Christmas presents this year. I hope they had a relaxing time: Veronika is scheduled to deliver their twins within the next two days.
And we still have more people to see and presents to open in January with visits to see both sets of grandparents and all of the aunts and uncles. We're heading to Austin and Dallas for New Year's and then visiting my parents and Gillian once we get back...
