Breakfast at home: french toast. Opened presents. Sam gave us matching jackets from Eddie Bauer, a 60-minute Yoga Tree massage gift certificate. Patrick's mom gave us the chocolate version of Monopoly and a gift box of old photos from her and Patrick's childhoods. Amy and David gave us Martinelli's apple cider and two champagne glasses. I gave Patrick a collection of seven Pre de Provence soaps, including three triangle-shaped ones flavored in tangerine, cucumber, and pear. Tina and Daniel gave us a gift package of homemade lemon and orange lollipops, two mini springform pans, spiced pear and first rain votive candles, and a cookbook by Le Cordon Bleu. Read the "Twas the Night Before Christmas" storybook window displays at Macy's. Saw Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
