Christmas Morning

We had a lovely time on Christmas morning. Our children are at that perfect age where everything is so magical.

I woke up at 630 to hear Ryan (who had been sleeping on the floor in Luke and Evie's room) yelling "Get up! Get up! It's Christmas morning!"

About half a second later, all 3 kids were tearing into our room, pouncing us in the bed. They were so, so excited.

We did stockings, opened up piles and piles presents (we gave up the tradition of opening presents one at a time about 3/4 of the way through and just let them tear into their piles ) and ate monkey bread. We spent the morning in our PJs playing games and just watching the kids enjoy their loot.



Calvin loved his baby doll
Caroline made our family puppets to look like us - I especially love the Ken puppet goatee and the Evie puppet googly eyes. So stinkin' cute.

Luke loved Steggy the 2nd (Steggy the 1st met an unfortunate end - decapitated by the dog).
Evie spent the morning dressed up in her new princess gear, vacuuming the house.

Lily was just happy to be. Happy to be smiled at, happy to stare at the Christmas lights, happy to be held. Happy, happy, happy.
