Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

The kids were up bright and early on Christmas morning. Who am I kidding, they are always up at the crack of dawn, so nothing really changed there. 

But they were eager for everyone to get out downstairs, so they could start opening their presents. Every couple minutes you would hear from one of the kids is "can we start opening presents yet?" So, when we finally announced that they could start opening, there was no stopping them. After a bit, we had to stop them and tell them to slow down. The kids were just too excited and before we knew it, all the presents were unwrapped and the kids were begging for us to open up all the packaging so they could start playing with all their new things. 

This year we gave the girls money to spend at the Christmas shop they had set up at their school. They were given enough money to get something for their siblings, Auntie, along with mommy and daddy. So right before winter break, the girls came home with a bag full of presents to put under the tree. 

The girls were very excited for us to open their special gifts that they picked out just for us. We were given ornaments, jewelry and stickers for Logan. 

I believe that the kids got everything and more, then they ever wanted, just like every other Christmas. Santa sure did treat them well. So did, their grandparents, auntie and their great grandma's. 

After the excitement of opening presents and opening all the packaging for everything, the kids spent the whole day playing with everything, which made for a relaxing day for mommy, daddy, and auntie. It was a successful Christmas Day, for sure!
