Cousins Gift-Exchange

In the Gurvine family we have a tradition with the grandkids. We have them each buy 1 gift around $10 for another cousin. It's always randomly drawn (unless Kim puts her bid in for someone specific because she found a really great deal on a gift) and the kids have a great time finding something for someone else. I have found it has also helped them get to know each of their cousins especially since they don't see them all very often. So to swap gifts with the cousins in Arizona Grandma and Grandpa brought with them their gifts and was going to bring back our gifts for them.
Hence we celebrated Christmas just a little bit early...

although the kids didn't mind!!
It's a Webkinz zoo for these 4

He's missed his cleaning regimen for weeks!


And we can't forget the famous apron FULL of POCKETS!!
Each grandchild has their name on a pocket and get to pick out a special gift from inside.
(I think she'll need an extension on the bottom soon!!)
(or maybe Grandpa can have an apron too!!)
