Christmas with the Friedrichs - Part 2

About a week after Christmas we enjoyed a morning at Joan and Joe's house celebrating Christmas again so that the grandparents could enjoy sometime with Anna, Kate and Charlie.

Pre Christmas Celebrations

At the beginning of December we went to the Packard Christmas Party. Charlie met Taylor (Uncle Jim's friend Mary Lou's granddaughter...got that?!). Taylor is older than Charlie but he loved having someone little to run around with. See the photo a few posts back of him SCREAMING at Santa at this party.

Grammy brought some little gifts over for Charlie each week when she watched him, leading up to Christmas to give him a little practice at opening gifts.
