Aunt Sharon, Calla, and Lynda having a few chips during Happy hour. 
Hannah and Papa Bob had a great time "talking" outside one evening. Hannah kept sharing her water with Papa.
Hannah even shared her water with Nana Lynda a few times. 
Mommy and her girls getting a little sun while playing outside. It felt sooo good to feel the warm sun!
Nana and the girls taking a break from playing for a picture. Calla said her favorite part of Christmas was spending time with Nana. Times we will never forget.

Opening Christmas presents was a blast! Calla got a t-ball set from her Uncle Steve. He taught all of the kids how to play, Calla was a natural!

Aunt Charlotte and Calla taking a break from the chaos to catch-up!We let the kids open a few presents before going to church, a few before they went to bed and the rest in the morning. It was crazy, but really great to see Christmas through the eyes of children again. All the adults found it magical.

Calla, Hannah, and Eric opening their first presents before church. We bribed Calla to get all dressed up and take picture with the promise of opening one gift it worked!
Hannah got a music set, all the kids loved playing with it and making music together. I think Nana misses her little music makers!
Hannah trying on Scott's glasses and hat after he went for a run. Both Scott and I found time to enjoy running in the sunshine. Since we have returned home we both have had some very wet runs.
Papa Bob, Scott, Courtney, Calla, and Hannah hit Sabino Canyon one afternoon. It was great!

Yes, I do miss all my little music makers! what a great Christmas we had in Tucson. Thank you all for coming here and making it so much fun and memorable. I love you. Nana
I can't express how much fun I had experiencing Christmas with all the Shaff Grandchildren. Getting, for the first time, to meet Hannah in person was such a joy. Watching her use hand language to say Thank You and Please, could bring tears to my eyes. Then I got to share the flight from Tucson to San Diego with Calla was a special ending to a special time. Can't wait for another visit.
