Christmas. . . .

CHRISTMAS EVE. . . .

We spent Christmas Eve at Pat's parents, which was really fun! We had dinner and opened presents.

And, we had a very special visitor . . . .

 

Snack time. . . 

Dinner time at the kid's table. 

Back at home. . Everything was ready for the next morning. . . .

CHRISTMAS MORNING. . .

My favorite part of Christmas morning was that the kids only had a couple things in their stockings, Will and Kate got little dinosaurs, and Grace, stickers.  Before they even asked to open their Santa gifts, they sat down and played for about 15 minutes with their stocking gifts.  Grace put all her stickers in her sticker book, and Kate and Will played dinosaurs.  It was awesome because it slowed down the whole morning! I hope they can have that much self control in the years to come:).

Skittles and a lollipop! Just what I wanted!! 

Kate and her "babies". 

They loved their new e-reader! 

And the girls loved their new bedspreads/pillowcases that Aunt Karen made!!
