Megan loves her new clothes.
Patrick got a new video game "Bolt".
Kenneth got blocks, an activity table and other baby toys but only wanted to knock down Mary's dollhouse.
It took Jon about 4 hours to figure out Rubick's Magic Cube. Grandma and Grandpa came for 2 o'clock dinner and were treated to excited children.
Much like all families we had the traditional meal of... tacos and burritos! (On paper plates!)
Mary Jane poses for Nana's camera. Papa is assembling a Spiderman Scooter in the back ground. Papa was busy doing his elf duties this morning. Good thing he carries a pocket knife and screwdrivers in his pockets.
Adam waits in the sea of papers. He was sad later that he could not take his new pirate ship into the bath tub.
Kelly hugs her new doll Mia. (Love the Minnie Pearl look too!)
We had a happy day. Our tradition is for my parents to come over and fix us breakfast. We then eat and then open presents. We hung out together and played toys and games the rest of the day. I'm thankful for a large and happy family on holidays like today. And with Kenny turning one this week I reflect that Santa will be coming to our house (and keeping Mike and I young?) for a long time. HO HO HO!
I definitely agree it's tons of fun to have a large family on Christmas. The more the chaos, the more the merrier!
ReplyDeleteMy sister got that flat magic rubics cube too from a friend earlier this month. she figured it out in a few hours as well.
