Gracie and Addy were up and happy pretty early for little kids and loved all the things that Santa and brought - Gracie was at the age that she really did believe Santa was coming and so the night before i had trouble putting her to bed because she wanted to pretend to sleep on the couch so that she could see Santa- finally i told her she could go to her room and keep her eyes open all night- which i knew would never happen- and then when she heard Santa she could tip toe out and see him- it was pretty cute
Ben sleeping through the morning festivities
After stocking we always have a yummy breakfast- this year Grandpa helped the girls by giving them shots of cool whip into their mouths- the sugar high was sure fun to watch later! :)
Gracies turn- if you notice there is a bowl of fruit- so we tried to get the girls to eat that as well - but they mostly kept opening their mouth and asking grandpa to "hit me" with the cool whip
Addy waiting for the grownups to finish cleaning up breakfast so they could get to the good part of opening presents
Gracie got a dress from Santa and so she had to change into it and have her picture taken about 15 times before we could open presents- here is one of the pictures!
Sitting on Grandpas lap singing a song-in our family its a tradition that to enter the living room to get your presents you have to sit on Dads lap and sing a christmas song, everyone young and old has to do it, its pretty fun! gracie sang "Santa Claus is coming to town" it was her favorite one- she never did pick up Jingle Bells but she would sing this one over and over again
Mom always sings I saw mommy kissing santa clause
The early morning is starting to kick in for Addy
Piles of presents!!
Ben and I
Alex and Jaquel in the hats that melanie made everyone- they were so cute i love mine!
Addy got this kitchen set for christmas - if you look hard you can see how excited her face is- it was so fun watching her open it
