Merry Christmas!!!

Today has been a long awaited day for everyone. The kids waited patiently for the whole month and didn't even complain this morning when we made them wait a little longer because they were up sooooooo early. Daddy and I have been waiting for it to come because he gets 2 weeks of much needed time off. We spent the day hanging out and playing with all the new things we found under the tree. I made a big family dinner and then got to take a short nap (which never happens). We had a great day!! And for all our family that we aren't able to be with..........We love you and miss you all like crazy. Happy Holidays to everyone!
Samuel loves, loves the Incredible Hulk (even though he doesn't know the story). He is into super hero stuff like Jack. The green shirt he has on is a hulk shirt and he wears it ALL THE TIME! Grammy made sock monkeys and dressed them up in super hero costumes for the boys.She also made Raggedy Ann dolls for all the girls. Everyone loved them!!Katie didn't really get to open her gifts because everyone else was all too helpful. She didn't mind as long as the other little ones did not take her unwrapped gift away.Abby loves dolls.......Well, she likes what she likes. It all depends on the moment!
It was fun to watch the kids get excited and squeel when they opened up their gifts. And even though it wasn't a huge Christmas (that's the way we like it), the kids had fun.
Merry Christmas!!!
