Here is our Christmas celebration with Cher Cher and Papa on December 22:

Then on Christmas Eve we headed to Mass for the 4:00 service. There was no nursery and Ted was reading, but we all survived (Ann Park slept, drooling, through the entire service!). I had the cutest outfits for them and am hoping that the might even fit again next year!
And then Christmas morning . . . oh the toys! Of course, it should not be the main event in Christmas, but we are still working on that one with the kids. They were so happy with everything and there was not even a fight about anything all day! We'll see how long that one lasts!
Coming downstairs Christmas morning - as an aside, they slept together and woke up at like 5:20. We told them that they could not come and get us until 6:00, but Ann Park came in our room at 5:45 and told us that Ward's clock was broken becuase the 6 would not come. We ended up stalling them and heading downstairs about 6:15. We let Sam sleep and he joined us about 7:00.
Ward riding his new scooter!
Sam checking it out . . .
Choo choos!!!
Mini light sabors filled with M&M's!
playing trucks with daddy
Sam's fireman hat and hatchett . . . a huge hit!
We played with all the toys and pretty much had a relaxing morning and early afternoon. I even got a quick nap, which was MUCH needed! We headed over to Ted's mom's house later that afternoon and had a great time playing with cousins and opening even more presents! We certainly are very blessed. Merry Merry!
