All of us took our gifts over to Crystal's house where we planned to open gifts Christmas morning as a family. We watch the children open their gifts first. Then clean up and while they are busy with their new things the adults open their gifts. We love this system!
This is the "Kids Tree"
Adult Tree
I loved their "alarm" system...just in case the kids woke up before Santa was finished
Crystal took all of the video clips and photos of Sage and put them on a single DVD for Spencer's Christmas Eve gift. They played Santa then watched Sage's video. They decided to make it a Christmas Eve tradition.

Then Teele and I went home and we discover Haven is still awake...she's waiting for Santa
A few minutes later I saw this...so much for catching Santa.
About 5 years ago RaLee asked for a tree in her bedroom. This year we put it in the living room. Her tree is white, with bright colors...this next ornament describes RaLee perfectly!

The last picture of Christmas Eve...Payten, Kaitlen and Haven's Santa under the tree.
Everything was bought, baked, wrapped, made and cleaned! Christmas Eve was over and I went to bed around 3am! So much for going to bed early.

There you go again, showing me up! I had to take some short cuts and buy a couple of gifts at the last minute because I just had to get rest or end up flat in bed again. I am still fighting the cough and tight chest, just like the good old days.
It does look great and I hope your Christmas will usher in a wonderful year!
I love that Haven was up waiting for Santa to come. Poor girl couldn't stay awake long enough to catch him! Maybe next year!
I love Crystal and Spencer's Santa alarm! I also Izzy's little wave! She gets so into it! Now she is also shaking her head no! I asked her today if she had was pooping her pants and she shook her head no. Then a few minutes later I smelled her. . . .already denying the smells!
CHristmas was fun. I am thankful for our familys. I loved spencers alarm as well! He sure is a funny guy!
So wonderful! Looks like you all had a great time. We loved everything you all gave us too,thank you so much!
BTW, crossing her eyes won't make them "stick" right now, but it can cause her muscle balance problems in the long run. I had to deal with that.
Gabe started doing that so I had to call his attention to what happens when Arianna takes of her glasses and told him that if some crosses their eyes around her, she feels like they are making fun of her and it hurts her feelings. Bless his heart, he has stopped, at least around cranky old Nanny!
