Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, we hosted the Chao family at our house for some traditional Chinese hot pot. And Joey got to start opening some of his Christmas gifts. It was a great start to Christmas and now we're on to San Antonio for some more festivities. More pictures are sure to follow...

Cousin Michael was back in Austin for the holidays and came by to visit us the day before Christmas Eve.

Joey just chillaxin with his Stretch 'n Fun Elmo on one side and his TMX Elmo on the other. It kind of looks like he's ready for a martini in his left hand.

Joey, meet your new ginormous Pluto - a Christmas gift from your Grandpa Charlie and Grandma Susan.

Joey doesn't quite know what to make of this big yellow thing.
