After opening one present Christmas Eve and then modeling the robes, we got cookies ready for Santa (no pictures...boo). Then it was story time. My cute little nephews, Blake and Case, and cute little niece, Maison area all ready for story time.
Notice how only Case and Maison are paying attention to the story now....
After story time Cade was getting his Nutcracker moose all ready to put in front of the tree for Santa to see. (don't know what crazy Cocoa dog is doing) Then it was off to bed......and Santa came for a visit!
YEAH!!!! It's Christmas morning and Santa left lots of presents for the kids.
Case found a little camera with pictures by the stockings for him.
Maddi and Cade with their stockings that my grandmother, Omie, made for them. I'm so thankful that she made these for them because she will always be a part of our Christmas for many years. Actually Cade wasn't born when she passed away, so she never made one for Cade, but he has my stocking she had for me at her house. This year while my mom was visiting she changed the name to say Cade so now we all have stockings made by Great Omie which makes me very happy.
Breezy and Case opening presents.
Blake excited about his new cars.
Maddi with a very cool book showing the inside of dogs.
Cade with his cool books about the solar system.
A pogo stick from Grammy! I was just as excited about the pogo stick because I was a pogo stick maniac as a child. Guess that's where my brain cells went...all mushed up from too much time on the pogo stick. FYI...I still have the moves on the pogo stick. Only problem is I have to watch my head on the rafters in the basement.
Also from Grammy...stilts. I was amazed at how quickly the kids learned how to walk on them.
Our gift to the kids this year...a trip to Disneyland in California in February. Maddi is reading the card telling them all about it. Cade is looking at the Mickey/Minnie ornament.
Here's my Maddi girl on her stilts. My life is often like a circus and it certainly was with all the family here at Christmas. All the craziness would be going on and then all of a sudden Maddi would appear around a corner on stilts and it would make everything seem more "circus-like".
Maddi and Maison in their matching sweaters playing with Maddi's new keyboard.
Uncle Todd, Blake, Case, Cade and Maison were playing with Cade's new flipping frogs game. It was such a fun Christmas day with all of us together and watching the excitement and joy of the kids with their new gifts.
