Last night for Christmas Eve we went to church. Audrey wore her pretty Christmas dress and I decided we'd get some pictures when we got home. I have a cheesy smile and Colin makes faces in every picture but Paul and Audrey look good at least.
We're continuing on the tradition of opening new pajamas on Christmas Eve(see the pillow pets from Uncle Billy)
Audrey in her Santa hat and new pajamas
After the kids went to bed, Paul and I got all the presents under the tree
CHRISTMAS MORNING
Our stockings
Opening Papa's presents
Playing with Papa
Colin pretty much helped to open everyone's presents
Baby Kitchen from Mimi
Audrey's stroller from Grandma
The dogs get gifts too. Nala is much better at opening them than Simba
Colin picked out this rocking horse for Audrey, she really likes it
He has fun on it too
Colin's truck from Papa
The North Pole threw up in our living room. It was quite a mess today. We got most of the stuff picked up and put away but still have some work ahead of us.
Fun with tools
Paul had to beg Colin half the day to take this picture with him. Colin is definitely in a stage where he hates to let you take his picture.
Colin's ski goggles....Paul hopes to take him out for his first time skiing soon
Everyone probably could have saved some money on Audrey's gifts. She had the most fun with packaging, wrapping paper and a roll of paper towels
Paul was very prepared for the morning of unwrapping. We had stocked up on AA batteries. He had a counter full of wire cutters, scissors, screw drivers, etc so that he could get any package opened.
The only thing he forgot....a 9V battery, but he knew just where to find one
Good thing we have like 5 smoke detectors on this floor of the house, I think we're still safe.
We all had a great Christmas and are very worn out from the day. Hopefully everyone gets a good night sleep tonight. Thanks to all our family for the gifts. We really appreciate everything. Wish we could have been able to see everyone today. We miss you.
