Christmas Day

Christmas Day was just delightful.  

Completely restful.  Utterly relaxing.  Divinely mundane.  

We did the usual stuff that most families do - nothing too special.  

I actually woke up before all the kids.  They weren't busting and whining to start the procedure.  

We ate cinnamon rolls.

Opened gifts.

Cleaned up.

We had dinner, but it was simple.  I'm making that a tradition.  

Simple on Christmas.

 The kids seemed thrilled with their gifts.

We were really excited about this Thomas the Tank Engine book we got for Calvin.  It's the Old School one.    He's obsessed and loves to hear stories - so a great fit.

As always - at this age Christian is more interested in the wrapping than the gift.

Dan got me a MOST treasured gift.  The Doritos were delicious.
And NO - I didn't eat the WHOLE bag that day!

Worthy 7 years ago in his "My First Christmas" suit and Christian this year.
Incidentally, with the middle two born around Christmas they missed out on this outfit.
