Christmas Recap

I really hate going back and blogging about something that happened a few days ago. It’s old news and who cares…right? But maybe the Christmas festivities deserve a little recap.

This will be a first of a couple posts.

First of all Christmas Eve started with a black eye due to a head meeting an eye the night before. She is still cute with her shiner.

Our Christmas Eve party included a game of Gift Exchange Bingo, which is a lot of fun.

LaLa got cotton candy and went ahead and ate it before anyone could take it from her.

I wasn’t doing so well.

After the fun and games we went out to spread the Reindeer food…not as much fun when it is 10 degrees out and everyone is freezing and just want to get back inside.

When we came back inside we found Pickles had left a gift for each of us.

Big Daddy and I were pretty excited to be included in the Christmas Eve jammie gift from Pickles this year. I am not quite sure why we haven’t been included before…hmmm.

We told the kiddos they couldn’t get out of bed until 6:30am. I know we are totally party pooper parents. Big J came in and woke me up at 6:25am.

When we came upstairs

we found this:

The kiddos couldn’t figure out why Santa wouldn’t finish his treat but did drink all of his Dr. Pepper. The Big Guy probably needed a little pick-me-up by the time he got here.

It didn’t take long for the kiddos to check everything out.

And about an hour later the room looked like this:

The day was a fun time of being together and playing. I didn’t realize quite how much fun until Ham fell asleep at the table during dinner.

The poor thing has been sleep deprived since we got here.
