Christmas morning is a whirlwind!
We get ready the night before by putting cookies out for Santa. Taylor wanted to make homemade sugar cookies, which I had no energy for...then I realized I had bought an "emergency Oreo cookie box" for the holidays...so glad I did!
All ready for the
big day!
The kids all slept in Connor's room. :)
Breakfast table was all set the night before with my Christmas dishes that I bought 20 years ago!
The boys beat the girls..up at 4:30am looking at their stockings. We told them we weren't going to stay up, and that we'd get up at 6:30am...the kids were so tired, they went back to bed and slept until 8am!!! Yeah!
Here are some of the present highlights:
Connor sent Parker on a note scavenger hunt all around the house, and even outside to find his present.
Parker also got a harness and a rock-climbing trip with dad to Nevada...more pics to come on that.
Connor received a LONG BOARD!
The quilt! She loved it!
Taylor got another scooter...his got broken and this one is a spark scooter!
A bow and arrow from Alyssa.
Christmas breakfast...always something yummy!
Taylor received a train set from Grandma and Grandpa and was
absolutely thrilled!!!
We took Connor to a nearby trail...but then...
his dad took a turn with the board...:)
Finally Connor's turn! His good friend Keaton got one too (Mom's talk you know), and they spent all afternoon together riding their long boards.
It was a wonderful Christmas!!!
