We had one family gathering on Christmas Eve and it was a lot of fun. The kids had a blast and Anna loved being able to wear her Christmas dress. She wanted to be the last one to enter the house when we arrived so everyone would say how pretty she was. Not sure why she had to be last!
Getting a group shot of the kiddos was next to impossible! Getting a nearly five year old, three - three year olds, and a one and a half year old to co-operate is difficult, at best! And Mr. Santa Head is subbing for Rhys.
We did get all five in one shot where no one was crying! Or being silly! Or shy!
After lunch and naps, it was on to gift opening. They were all happy to help Natalie and Rhys open their gift!
The boys got a great workbench with tools (which they love) and the measuring tape included has been used to measure just about everything (not necessarily accurately thought!).
The also got these great hooded towels made by their aunt Michelle. They love these towels and were upset when I had to wash them so they didn't get to use them every day!
And a view of the spikes on Mason's and the face on Olivier's.
They also got Bilibo "chairs". They love spinning around, and pretending they are turtles, and making castles, and pretending they are on a roller coaster, and, well, the list goes on! Rhys really enjoyed it too!
We came home after a full day and put the cookies we made for Santa out (the ones with chocolate sprinkles because he likes those best according to the kids) and snuggled into bed. Now the wait for Santa!
