Christmas Surprise

Just when our families thought they had opened their last present, we had something else in store for them!!

With my family, we spent the morning on Skype using our webcams. Watched my parents open their gifts, played with the pugs (well virtually), and then opened their last "gift" with them on camera!! My mom was squealing and my dad was absolutely speechless for once when they saw us reveal our "I Love My Grandma & Grandpa" bib. Marissa actually filmed their reaction which I will post too (yes a video of a video...we are such a tech savvy family..lol). It was so exciting!!!!!

We tried to do the same with Greg's family, but they didn't have access to a webcam. So instead Greg came up with making the video below for them. We sent an e-mail to his family with this attached and called them on speaker phone. MaMa H, PaPa H, Eric, Steph and Sarah all gathered around the computer and the phone. Silence...silence...a little bit of confusion...silence and then all at once....CHEERING!!! Amongst all the yelling you could hear PaPa H say it best "this is the greatest gift we could have ever received"....we couldn't agree more!!!

Merry Christmas Family...we love you and miss you!!!
