By Christmas, our tree had been up for over a month and was getting pretty droopy. But the Christmas Spirit was still the same! The kids woke up about 7:00 to open their stockings and didn't wake up Brad and I until 8:00. (It gets later every year!)
We said we were going to have a "small" Christmas this year, but it seemed like there were just as many, if not more, presents!
Nate made Ben a cool wooden sword.
Kylie's favorite gift was a North Face raincoat. It was the only thing she really wanted this year.
We gave our Cake Boss some cake decorating tools. Oh yeah!
As a gag-gift (kind of...), I gave Brad a portable camping toilet.
Nate got lots of things he needs for school, including these warm boots.
Ben's big gift was an X-Box, since Nate is taking his to college.
No pictures of me, sorry! Brad gave me a new blender, since I love to make smoothies. The one we had, we'd gotten for our wedding almost 20 years ago and it wasn't exactly blending anymore. After opening presents, we had a delicious breakfast of German pancakes and then everyone relaxed or played with their new toys.
Later in the day, we went over to my mom's for Christmas dinner with my sisters and their families. I forgot to take a group picture, but we were all there!
