Have a holly jolly Christmas

These three did!
Just dreaming what would be under the tree when they woke up.

Even though Corbin does not really "believe", he is still a great sport to make it fun for the younger boys.

We left Santa a cookie and Corbs wrote a nice letter.
Having a hard time reading it? He was in a huge hurry...
Merry Christmas
Santa Clause these Cookies
are for you. Corbin
Taylor and Levi
was trying to be good.

Then off to bed.

In the morning I wasn't sure how tired we would be so we left the boys a scavenger hunt to find their stockings. It wasn't planned super well, but it would do.
However, we were up an hour before Corbin and Taylor.
In my family stockings were opened last, it was so exciting to have opened all our presents and then realize we still had our stockings to open. In Justin's family they were opened first, that way if the kids woke up super early, they could go open their stockings and play with the toys in there until mom and dad woke up. Listening to Justin talk about how exciting it was to wake up at 5:00 and go downstairs and play with his little toy car forever made me excited to carry on that tradition.
Breakfast came next.
This really was a Christmas Tree Cinnamon Roll, however Santa got to it before I could.
And the tradition carries on from my family. Omelets. (with Orange Juice)
Since we had breakfast first (we are just mean) Presents weren't open until 9:00.
Levi's favorite gift. He even swiped his brothers teddy grahams.

We didn't finish opening presents until 11:00.
and it's not because they got alot
They opened, then played, opened, then built
Thanks to daddy!
oh, and they are playing on my gift from Justin. (now we can finally prop up our feet and relax)


That's what Christmas Morning was like at our house.
And according to the boys,
It was the Best Christmas Ever!
And they hope they will get a Christmas like this again.
How was your morning?
