A very Merry Christmas!

The girls get to open a present on Christmas Eve which is usally a new pair of pajamas. This year they were made by their grandma. Thanks Grandma, they look great!

This year, "K" had to work on Christmas day. He had to leave by 6:00 AM so we woke up the girls at 5:00. They did not want to get up so early (I am sure this will change as they get older), but after saying it was Christmas, they gladly jumped out of their beds. These pictures show that kids can still be happy this early in the morning and we still got to do our tradition of opening presents one by one, youngest to oldest. "K" and I always enjoy watching each expression as each present is opened. So even though "K" didn't get to spend the whole day with us, we still enjoyed a pretty good morning together.

Feeding Reindeer

"B" has made some special reindeer food this year. It consists of oats, sugar and glitter. The glitter is used to attract the reindeer to the food at night. It's hard to see oats when it's cloudy and rainy in Indiana.

It looks like it will be cloudy enough for Santa to bring Rudolph, that makes "A" much happier. "A" was a little worried about Santa this year and included him in her prayers last night.

A fun Christmas decoration!

I bought this inflatable decoration at Lowes the other day and thought that "K" and the kids would enjoy this. We put it up in our house to see if it would work first. We will put it outside of course.
