On Christmas day we did Santa as soon as Sonni woke up. Just like when I was a kid, Santa left a pile for everyone in their own little spot. Sonni really did not know what to think....she just got this look on her face like where did all of these toys come from....
Mommy also got a camera which Santa brought early for me to use...
Buddie and Big John come over to eat breakfast and see what Sonni got from Santa. Then we went to the Waterbury's at 11 am. They always get the party started early on Christmas day...we eat and then do an ornament swap. This year everyone was supposed to wear tacky shirts so I made Sonni a shirt to match mine and Will's. Not everyone dressed tacky and some people brought a change of clothes, but it was a nice change since we usually dress up....
Sweet Alli cat...
Sonni was attempting to crawl then she would get tired and lay her head down....
Justin & Angie got engaged this Christmas! Aren't they cute in their matching tacky clothes...
A better attempt at a four generation picture since the last one we took wasn't very good....I think this one is much better except I look like the odd man out because I am the only one dressed tacky....
Sunday night we had Gigi, Pop, Angie, Justin, Anna, and Nana over to the house. I had cooked chicken and dressing for dinner Friday night so all we had to do was heat it up and exchange presents. This was nice because we usually do this on Christmas morning and it is always rushed.
Tonight we went to Buddie and Big John's for our final get together. We usually do this the day after so it is not too rushed. We had shrimp and crab legs and it was delicious. It is always a joy to watch the kids opening their present because they get so excited.
We had a wonderful Christmas and we now have a living room FULL of toys! We are so thankful to have such loving family and friends.
