Christmas is already here! We love Christmas at our house and the kids have been waiting for this day all year! The kids have loves having the elves on the shelf at our house. The first thing they do every morning is try and find out where they are and if there was a note left for them. Both the girls have been really curious about them and have written notes back and forth all Christmas season. It has been so fun!
When Christmas Day finally arrived Rease had a plan for the day.
We hosted this year and had a fun group. Josh's parents, my parents, Garrett, Andy and a friend of Josh's from work and her daughter. We had a yummy dinner of French Dip sandwiches (Josh's family's tradition) and lots of desserts! Then we went caroling around the neighborhood. It was a perfect Christmas Eve night with a light snow falling. It was beautiful!
After all the Christmas Eve traditions, the kids were ready for bed and ready for Santa to come!
On Christmas Eve all the kids sleep together in the same room. I think they actually did get a little sleep!
Lined up Christmas morning at the top of the stairs!
Santa did make it to our house this year!
This year we tried to have one person open a present at a time so everyone could watch. It actually turned out good and was super fun to see the reactions of each of the kids with every gift.
This was Rease's Christmas list to Santa. Turns out he read her letter! She got Pokemon cards and also got a ski pass to Park City to ski with her dad!
We had such a fun, happy Christmas this year! Most of all we loved being with family and friends to celebrate the birth of our Savior. It was a day to remember!
