I love the pajamas, what a great tradition in my family started by grandma. My sister have thought about starting up a tradition where we try and find each other the ugliest pajamas possible to give to each other! And I love your ornament tradition. What fun ideas you have!
I hope that your Christmas was as good as it sounds here, and I hope that you enjoy some time with grandpa!
Love you and miss you!
