On December 22, our family celebrated Christmas at Benny, EJ, and Harper's house. We enjoyed spending time with family, eating seafood for lunch, and opening presents.
For lunch, we ate oysters, shrimp stew, fried flounder, and crab paws:

Hadley has been allergic to shellfish for several years. While we were at Benny and EJ's house, Hadley's left eye got red, itchy, and swollen. Although we were very careful to keep Hadley away from the seafood, she must have touched some oyster water and rubbed her eye. We put some ice on Hadley's eye and gave her some Benadryl. Thankfully, the next morning, Hadley's eye looked normal.
Benny surprised EJ and Harper by giving them a Goldendoodle for Christmas. Harper named her 6 week-old puppy Jingle:

After lunch, we opened presents:
EJ wrapped Uncle Kenny's gift with 200 ft of Saran Wrap. Haha!
Savannah and Hadley received many items on their wish list, including art supplies, craft projects, bath products, Play-doh, a play kitchen, an electric scooter, a Fit Bit, LOL surprises, and Baby Alive doll. The girls were blessed with many gifts from some special people who love our girls very much!
