Christmas Day

My beautiful Sarah Kate on Christmas day.

After playing with Santa's gifts for awhile, it was time to open all those wrapped presents taking up room by Mr. Christmas Tree. The kids opened gifts from their siblings, Grandma and Grandpa, and cousins. Thanks EVERYONE for all the gifts you gave.

The homemade gift Sarah made for me. Very creative.

Ben spent most of Christmas Eve night and a lot of Christmas morning building his Lego ship he got from Grandma and Grandpa Gass. With a little help from Daddy, he finally got it done.

Adam opening his gift from Ben.

Ben playing with the Zibit he got from Gracie.

Sarah with her new lion Webkinz.

Gracie loves her new elephant Webkinz.

It was time to open Grandma's big gift from Grandpa. She was definitely not short on helpers.

It was a popcorn popper for their hot tub room.

Of course we had to try it out.

The kids loved watching it pop.

Opening gifts from the Newbry cousins.

Hannah loved her '12 Dancing Princess' Barbie.

Dan got a phone from the movie 'Toy Story 2.' He loved it.

Next was the books from Grandma and Grandpa Holderness. My kids are loved by many.

After all the other gifts were opened it was time for more playing and hanging out. The kids loved all their gifts and I loved being able to watch them play with their gifts. Even though I miss my family, I think we'll be spending all our holidays at home from now on. They go by too quickly and I don't want to miss them.

Hannah playing with her Barbie and Daniel playing with his phone. Thanks Zack and Cadence!

Gracie playing with her Fairies tent she got from her cousin Gabbi.

Playing BINGO with Grandma.

Just hanging out on the couch.

Hatching Fluffy from his egg.

The kids all enjoyed teaching Fluffy new tricks and playing with him.

After a day full of fun and relaxation it was time for dinner.
