Christmas- Part One

We had a fun weekend in NJ last weekend with Nana, PopPop, Uncle Ryan, Uncle Chris, Aunt Megan and Grandma T (or just "teeh," as Kate calls her) to celebrate our "first" Christmas for the season. The kids liked watching at the door and helping PopPop as some of our visitors came and went. The kids opened their presents in under 15 minutes, so we're hoping to delay their warp-speed unwrapping a bit on Christmas morning in 2 days! The kids both 'tried on' some of their new clothes, including pj's for Paul with a red canoe and moose and a cozy purple fleece for Kaitlyn. She also "HAD" to put on her ladybug slippers. Unlike the male Redferns, she enjoyed trying on every item of clothing... Paul III this year opened up some clothes, and in classic Redfern male fashion, handed the box to daddy without much interest!
Who needs presents when you have a box to drive?!Nana and Kaitlyn at dinner.Pop Pop and Paul playing with one of the favorites- a fuzzy, squeezy orange ball.We also got to meet Lauren and Dave Ahlert's adorbable little guy, Logan... he was all smiles during our visit along with Aunt Terri and Uncle Lou. Paul and Uncle Ryan made sure that Uncle Ry's fish was getting some attention too.
The kids also made sure to check out all of the singing and dancing items.
