Christmas

After our visit from Santa on Christmas Eve we went over to MJ's parent for another celebration of Christmas. We ate a wonderful breakfast and then let the kids into the room that Santa had visited again. Jessi was a little sad that Santa hadn't visited our house but she got over it quickly.

She had a blast opening all her gifts. It seemed that they would never end. We ended up having to get more storage for her room!

Tanner also enjoyed opening his gifts, with a little help. He didn't want to move on to the next, he just wanted to get the one he had opened out of the box. Eventually he was able to and Jessi helped him play with them as usual.

My mom made Tanner his beautiful blanket.

I laid it on the floor for him to see it and he snuggled right into it.

Daddy even got a few surprise amid trying to get toys out of packaging fast enough for little fingers. The challenge was trying to do it while they helped.

After the gifts were opened we had a relaxing afternoon before everyone came for dinner. We enjoyed a wonderful meal that Vicky made with everyone helping.
Over all we had a wonderful holiday and hated to have it end and everyone go back to work. We are more blessed that we can say. I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday too.
