This was the first year that James had off Christmas eve and Christmas Day. We were all so excited. This is also the first year we are going to make our own family traditions.
This morning the kids watched t.v. and I finished wrapping presents (nothing like the last minute). When I was done with that Miranda and I made snack foods for the family. We then all went downstairs to the "man cave" and ate while watching Christmas movies. Today was so relaxing, something we hardly ever get to do. We had no cares we were just spending time together as a family.
As we were setting downstairs watching t.v. the door bell rang. The kids ran upstairs and opened the door to see... presents from Ms. Santa. They were so excited! They hurried in to see what she had brought them. They all got a new pair of pajamas. This is something my parents did with me and my sisters. I really liked it so we are caring on the family tradition. That way when they get up in the morning they have brand new pajamas and will look half descent for pictures :) After another movie the kids were ready to go to bed. They sat food out for Ms. Santa, Santa, and the reindeer, then headed off to bed.
After the kids went to bed James and I watched a couple of Christmas movies together. James is not a big Christmas fan so for him to sit through 2 Christmas movies says a lot about how much he loves me...how sweet. After the movies it was off to bed so that Santa could come and do his thing. Well not before Mr. and Ms. Santa had there snack. Santa got oreos this year and Ms. Santa got puppy chow.
I unfortunately do not have an pictures do to the fact that my memory card doesn't want to work any more. I will go get a new one soon so we can put up our wonderful pics.
Today is also my sister, Noelle's Birthday so.....HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! We hope you had a wonderful Birthday.
