Christmas Morning we got up about 7:30. I was exhausted! Easton came in our room and we went and got the girls up! We waited on the stairs for dad to start the fire and then we heard Santa's sleigh bells flying away! I wish we had a picture of Easton's face when he heard them (Andrew had his phone with it making a sleigh bell noise) he was stunned!
It snowed a few inches overnight!
Everybody got big stuff this year. Ella got a dollhouse, Easton got a tool bench, Addie got a activity center, and Andrew surprised me with a bike! They each got a few books, a new outfit, and Easton and Ella got little cheap computer things. Ella really wanted an Elsa dress from Santa and I scored one for half off at target a few weeks before! It was such a good Christmas! It is so fun to see the joy and excitement on the kids faces!
I don't know what Addie loves more her house or Easton's tool bench. She goes for one or the other most days!
We spent the rest of the day with family. We had breakfast at my parents then headed and spent the afternoon with Andrew's siblings. We missed his mom and dad this year they spent it in Arizona. We ended the night at my Grandma's house for dinner! We gave my Grandma a router so that we can all have Internet when we are at her house, and mostly so we can skype my brother while we are at her house! It was such a great day and we are so thankful to be close to family again and to be able to have started some of our own traditions this year with our kids!
