Christmas Part 2!

Well, this was our first year to really have a gift from Santa that required some assembly. 
OH MY!! Who knew that play kitchens were designed by evil people cackling themselves to sleep on Christmas Eve (lucky for us we assembled on Dec. 23) while others stay up all night trying to solve the puzzle. 

 It started out to seem somewhat simple... just a little box...
The project began about 8:45pm...

 Look at the number of screws!! Eeeek!!

 This is looking like major surgery.



This is Pappy telling my husband that he will "supervise" the project and continue to keep Brian's drink refilled. Pappy said he has done his time building these things and is passing the torch!

At about 10:30pm... we hit a hiccup. This cost Brian about 30 minutes. He was not a happy camper.

 Crisis averted!! Now back to work and perhaps... a scotch! 

 This was the last I saw of the kitchen until morning. I went to bed about 11:45pm. 
The boys stayed up until about 12:45am, moved the thing to the garage and were pooped!! 

It turned out super cute!! And don't worry... she loves it!!

The next day, we gave Daddy some "resting" time and headed off to see our friends!
 It is crazy difficult to get these kiddos to sit still! 

 Watching Elf movies, running around Lulu's house. 
Halle, Addi and Ballerina were full of the Christmas Eve excitement.

I cannot wait until these 2 are Srs in high school and I get to put these types of pics in their slideshow!! Such goofs!!

More Christmas Cheer to come tomorrow!!
