Christmas Day

We had the best Christmas Day! The kids had a wonderful time opening presents. Brandon and I enjoyed spending the day at home; NO ONE HAD TO WORK!

The highlight of the day (for the kids) was the arrival of Santa. The kids where so excited!

At our house there are no gifts placed under the tree until after Santa comes. This helps us keep our sanity. Here are the before and after pictures.

First the kids dove into their stockings. The boys were excited to find Bakugans and candy

Next came a fury of gift opening. Only one gift was set aside to be opened last and so I got pictures of the reaction. Eric got was he wanted most...

... a NINTENDO DS! Can you tell the he was excited?

Josh got moon shoes. He loves them!

Kate was given a Tinkerbell chair.

Then we had out traditional BIG breakfast. Afterwards we relaxed until that afternoon when we went to Grandma's for a wonderful Christmas dinner! It was a perfect day.
