Santa (Grandpa) came early for Grandma this year.
My beautiful parents. So special to me.
With the boys. At this point the kids were sooooooooo ready for Santa they were completely wound up.
Oh my, they are adorable.
Grandpa looks proud of the Prime Rib.
We made the mistake of turning our back on Jimmy. He was so proud to serve the punch.
Jimmy is the one who got the Reindeer food in class but the almost 10 year old was the only one who wanted to spread it this year. He really wanted Jimmy to do it with him but he was to busy writing Santa a letter to leave with his cookies. We all read the letter later but we could not figure out what it said. He just seemed to be "sorry" for something and he "loved him". LOL
I promise I will take pictures of this kid at 20 spreading Reindeer Food.
Oh yeah, and that dinner was SOOOOOOOOOO good! I had nothing to do with the making of the meat but I sure snapped that picture anyway. LOL
The kids both got new jammies from Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas morning but they have been in them all week since then. They finally fell asleep that night around 11. Since this was not our first rodeo we knew we only had a few hours until they were up! A few years ago we decided to start exchanging our gifts with each other late Christmas Eve. After the kids were in bed. For so many reasons it is one of my favorite things in the world. It seems like after a month of non stop craziness time stops for a moment for us. Quite and calm and just us. Giving each other the little things we had been hiding from each other for weeks (ok days in some cases) Christmas Morning will bring enough crazy with a 9 and 6 year old. TRUST ME!! Next up...the big day! No wonder I am still tired.
