Christmas Day

Christmas Day was perfect! We didn't get out of our pajamas all day and we took our time opening presents, eating, and playing all day. It was fantastic. The kids were so excited! 
We got a lot of fuzzy pictures, but oh well. We'll figure out our settings better next year. Everyone was really happy with their gifts! One of our favorite things this Christmas was seeing the kids give gifts for each other and be so polite and gracious when they opened them. We kept hearing things like "I thought you would like that" and "Thanks a lot ______! That's great!" It was really sweet and made us happy that the kids got more out of Christmas than just getting things.
Legos! All this kid wanted was a Lego Ninjago set, and we delivered. He was very very excited. Connor wanted a Batman lego set, so we got him one, along with a Batman action figure, which he loves. For some reason he loves batman (and has for a couple years now), so he was pretty happy.
Anna with her new doll cradle.
Oh boy, way too many presents!
Everyone got new hats and gloves.

New drill for Jeremy! He loves it!
Our delicious Christmas breakfast. The kids were too excited to eat, so after a few bites, they went to play with their new things and didn't stop for quite a few hours! So Jeremy and I enjoyed a nice breakfast together.

Finally taking a break to eat something...
Like I said, it was a wonderful relaxing day! We had so much fun just playing together. I feel like I don't play with my kids nearly enough because I'm always busy doing things (especially at Christmas time!) so it was fun to be done with all the work and just enjoy lots of yummy leftover food and lots of fun games and activities.
