Our morning started at 8:01AM. One little girl in a pink nightie jumped out of her sleeping bag by the tree and went to make sure all the gifts were still there. That little girl had not fallen asleep until 3AM making her parents very, very tired.
This was the scene at 8:04AM. Everybody had taken their places and were ready to start. One little girl was so excited she crawled back in her sleeping bag and covered her head.
And so it began, the ripping and tearing. By looking at these pictures you can see our girls take opening their gifts very seriously. i couldn't get them smiling in any of the pictures.
By 8:38AM it was done and we moved on to preparing breakfast. On the menu.... American Girl Parfaits! Natalie helped make them while Kaitlin went up to get ready for church.
A very joyful morning it was. By 9:30AM we were ready to go to church! My only regret was not taking a picture of the whole family before leaving for church. But I leave you with with this one of my beautiful big girl.
Tonight we will continue the celebrations with our big Secret Santa Reveal Party.
Merry Christmas to All!
