Christmas!

Christmas was magical this year. It was seriously one of our favorite years yet. The kids were so excited, we got fun gifts and we spent the day together as a family. I am just loving my kids' ages and know that it won't always be this magical on Christmas morning. Our morning actually started with our friends dropping off blueberry muffins before our kids had woken up. (They had a hard time going to sleep) So we got the room all set up and started drumming our fingers waiting to hear noises in their room. 

Aaron had them wait in their room before they could come out. 

They instantly went to their presents and started playing with them right away. Their reactions were just how you would expect. Camilla beyond excited and can't believe she has a princess castle and Carson acting like what? haven't we always had a wii. 

After that we had our big breakfast with eggs, sausage, OJ, you know the drill. Then it was time to open presents since zook, zook was awake. 

Brookey loves to open presents. 

The big kids immediately wanted to play with their toys. Carson started counting all the money in Monopoly and Camilla started coloring her Frozen coloring book with her new princess crayons. (Crayola is genius)

Even Josie had a gift. She sure loved her bone. 

Then after a relaxing day at home playing with toys, going for a run with my new Garmin in a tank top and shorts (December people!), it was time to go to our friend's the Wyeths house for dinner. We gathered with some of our favorites for a delicious meal. It was a perfect way to finish the holiday. The kids were so happy to play with friends and I was so happy to only prepare a few side dishes. :) 

Then just like that the day was over, it was time for pajamas and brushing teeth but we all went to bed happy, happy for such a fun day.
