Christmas Day!

 Hanging the stockings with care.


The children were told they couldn't get out of bed until 7:00.  Here we are at 7:00 plus one second.

What Santa had in store...
 

New dresses and a tambourine (and maracas, and a triangle, and clapper, and a...what was Santa thinking?).


The girls in their dresses.

Everyone willingly humoring mom with getting a Christmas photo (be sure and read the last sentence with the required amount of sarcasm).

Then we headed out to celebrate with Michael's family.  Grace with the elephant Grandma gave her.  She named it Matilda.

We finished up the day with my family.  Both the little ones fell asleep while we were there.  It was a long day.

Finally headed home.   My sister gave Grace a giant bear (save me from giant stuffed animals!).  She named it...Matilda.  She is so creative.  She has since changed the name of the bear and elephant.  They are both now named Maggie Jean.

 One quick tea party with the pretty new dishes and then it was off to bed. 

Merry Christmas everyone!
