The Hartnett Family Christmas

Hartnetts, Hamptons, Aquilios & Haushalters

Looking down from the balcony

Corben loved getting in the middle of the gifts...

he also liked looking for the name, asking for help and then distributing the gifts to the appropiate person!...such a good Santa's helper!

Pop & Nonie gave Corben a stool with his name on it with puzzles!

I have a childhood memory of my Grandmother Gills (Papa John's Mom) sitting with all of us kids with many Clifford dogs around for funny Christmas pictures (I think they were on sale one year at Gottschalks....good memories, and now I have my little Miss Mason with one of the same dogs!)
