Let the fun begin

Today Elise and go will go to the Win-Bins and have a relaxing day, eating and putting together puzzles and watching the girls unwrap gifts gradually.  I'm not sure they could take opening them all at once!

They stayed here yesterday while Emily and Ryan went to the Issaquah Costco, which is no place for children OR adults on Christmas Eve or any time.  They were allowed to open one gift to bring over here, and it was a couple from Grandma and Grandpa Bindert - who know these girls very well.

Graysen got an Elsa Lego set.  She couldn't wait to take it out and get started.  She took the instructions, which she called her map, and started organizing.

She's like her dad and is going to love things like this.  I ended up holding the map for her, and letting her see what she needed and finding it.  A few times when I couldn't find the piece, she would immediately go to it.

Katherine's gift was a Paw Patrol book and figures set with a play mat.  She was so thrilled over it and set them up for an adventure.

She really wanted Graysen to pay with her, but Graysen was concentrating on the Legos, so she brought some of her pups to visit Elsa.  They did pretty well playing together, but then Layla decided she was feeling left out.  Those little pieces are hard to resist for a kitty.

More after the afternoon of fun.
