We had a very Merry Christmas this year!!! We spent Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpas house. Everyone was there to celebrate. Poor Uncle Mike came down with a stomach bug during the festivities. In years past the kiddos all were spoiled with so many gifts from everyone so we decided to start a new tradition this year and they all drew names. There was a kid drawing and an adult drawing so everyone was able to open a present on Christmas Eve. It was so fun having the kids pick out a special present as a secret Santa. Cannon made Ellie a big stage to put in our house so she can do performances. Chloe made Mikey a Bat Mobile. They were very creative!! Ellie had Mia and got her a Barbie Van and a cookbook. Patchy had JoJo and bought him a broom and a motorcycle. JoJo had Patchy and got him a real basketball and a gumball machine for potty training.
We spent a quiet Christmas day with just our family. We were able to Skype Mommom and Poppy in the morning so they could watch the kids open some of their gifts and Grandma stopped by for a bit in the afternoon. After all of the craziness it really is so nice to spend time at home with our family and enjoy each other. Santa Claus came to our house and the kids were very excited. Although, Mommom and Poppy have Santa beat by a mile. Some of the highlights this year was the Barbie Dream House, scooters, Batman quad, tool workbench and Doll clothes and accessories. Lucky lucky kids. Thanks Mommom and Poppy...and Santa!!
