Christmas Morning

Our quiet Christmas at home this year has been really nice. Very mellow, relaxed and fabulous. This morning, Jason and I got up early to see if Santa had come over night. We were happy to see that he did indeed come and brought more than coal. We sat in the early hours of the morning sipping coffee and waiting for the kids to wake up. Drew woke up first and was thrilled to see Santa had come. She went and woke her brother up. Eli was not pleased but when he came into the living room and saw all the presents, he got over it quickly.

The only thing Drew asked for when she sat on Santa's lap this year was the Tinkerbell DVD. Imagine her glee when it was the first gift she picked from under the tree.

 

 

I took Drew out shopping to get Jason a present. She knows he wants a sailboat so when asked what she wanted to get him, she wanted only to get him one. So here is the gift Drew got him this year.

 

 

 

Drew got me a beautiful necklace and matching earrings. I didn't get the earrings in before she grabbed the camera to snap a photo of me in my new bling.

 

Here are the kids opening some of the goodies sent from Grandma Joanne. Thank you!!

 

 

 

 

 

Eli really likes the globe we got for them.

 

Drew got an acoustic guitar from mommy and daddy. She can't wait to play with Gigi. She was rocking out soon after picking it up for the first time.

 

 

A few more random shots of them enjoying the morning.

 

Jason will soon be busy building another house, this time smaller than the one we live in and probably a little more girly :) Drew was very happy to see the dollhouse kit we got for her.

 

 

 

Now, the boys are napping and Drew is playing quietly with some of her new things and I have been enjoying my new book.

A wonderful day so far.

Merry Christmas!!
