I got three pictures of the stocking fun, but two were very blurry--the girls were fast moving. And then, I didn't get more pictures of the present opening craziness. I am not sure what happened.

My niece Sophie got a camera and she took this one of her and Natalie.

Here's a video of Buddy with a toy he got. You can also see the aftermath of present opening (and we weren't even done). Natalie loves playing with Buddy and the toy.
And here you can see where my brother Rob and I fry eggplant. We're both very excited about the egglant. It's our Dad's recipe and it is so amazing. I made it last Christmas too. Last Christmas I took more pictures of the little girls and less of the eggplant. Next year, I'll strive for more balance... more little girl pictures and more eggplant pictures.
Also, on the web page above you can see Mary, my sister-in-law, Sophie (our neice), Nick, and the three little girls eating dinner. It was a fun day. A few hours after dinner, we all were very stuffed, but Mary did Zumba (my favorite work out) with me.
The next day, Mary had to head down to attend a seminar for her doctoral program and Rob and Sophie headed home.
