Christmas Morning

Here is a brief glimpse into our Christmas morning. The kids woke up at their normal time and were content to watch some cartoons before running downstairs to see if Santa came. When we finally let them down, they were very excited. We let them open their stockings and then had some yummy breakfast before diving into everything under the tree. The kids had a great time. They were both really into Christmas this year. Lauren even told us she woke up and heard a "clatter" and then saw Santa! Aaron was really happy that the reindeer ate the carrots he left them. Thank you to everyone. We all are truly blessed to have such wonderful family and friends!

Let the chaos begin!

Lauren listening to Grandma read her a princess book.

Lauren's favorite present from Santa, a ballerina music box.

So you may have noticed there are not very many pictures of Aaron, he is getting even more stubborn about pictures and just runs away or makes awful faces.

Aaron trying really hard to not be disappointed. He thought Santa did not get him the one thing he wanted more than anything else. But wait, what is that hidden behind the tree?

Look, I got 4 Disneyland tickets! (Can that smile get any bigger?)
