Finally getting to Christmas! This year we decided to get a real tree. It wasn't the prettiest tree we've ever had but it sure smelled good! Callie did better with it than I anticipated. She pretty much left it alone except occasionally when she would pull off an ornament or two that was in her reach.
On Christmas eve we told the kids they couldn't wake up until 7am. Well at about 6:55 all 3 kids are standing by my bed saying we've been waiting 15 minutes and its only a little early. Can we please open our presents! We were so proud of them for being so patient.
When we walked into the living room Santa had left 4 huge bean bag chairs. All the kids ran to the ones that they wanted. The kids got some great stuff. Here are some highlights:
Macie got an Ipod, girl nerf gun, books, and a doll
Connor got an Ipod, nerf gun, legos, and play station games
Mckenna got a kitchen set, leap pad, and an Ariel doll
Callie got Violet the puppy, little people house, and a rocking horse
They got some fun stuff and were really happy. Santa asked mom and dad to buy the kids Ipods. Mom and dad made a deal and bought some older used ones that were still in excellent shape. When the kids went to play them alot of the games already on them wouldn't work. So we did some playing around and tried downloading new games and they wouldn't work. So we had to explain to the kids that Santa asked us to do one thing and it didn't work out the way we planned. So we ended up buy the kids tablets to make up for the not so great Ipods. Lucky ducks!
Christmas this year was great. We went to my moms for lunch and just hung our for a while with the family. Here is a huge photo bomb!!!
