This year we spent Christmas Eve at Amanda's house. We had a yummy dinner and sat around and sang lots of Christmas carols.
When it got late the girls opened their Christmas pj's and we headed home.
At home we put out the cookies and milk for Santa....
Christmas morning was a success. Adaliah got her mermaid dress that she asked Santa for (she was very clear that it needed to cover her feet. She asked for one the year before but was so disappointed that it wasn't long enough, so she never put it on. Luckily Santa got it right on his second try) Elizabeth got her kitty that she asked for. Pete got his Gun, and I got my bike.
Jim, Susan, Chris, and Aunt Pam came over and watched the girls open presents and we all had Christmas breakfast. We spent the morning and afternoon in our pajamas slowly opening and playing with presents.
Elizabeth has been terrified of Santa all Christmas. She wouldn't sit on his lap and cried every time she saw him. Christmas morning when the Ackermans knocked on the door, her eyes got wide and she yelled "It's santa!" and ran and hid behind the couch.
Norah got a toy remote and a Christmas book in her stocking. We all laughed as she grabbed the book and threw it and then went for the remote.
That evening we went to Grandmother and Pops for a family dinner.
