Christmas Day!!!

After our Christmas Eve festivities ended, we rushed home and quickly put the girls to bed.

It took them all but 5 seconds to fall asleep.  Lucy even less!

And because Santa had done his work prior to Christmas Eve, delivery and set up were a cinch.

 

On Christmas morning the girls woke up, (we actually woke them up!) to this....

They were SUPER DUPER excited!

The girls have absolutely loved their kitchen!  Thanks Santa!
 

Once the initial shock and excitement of their new kitchen wore off, we loaded up the rest of the presents and headed to my parents house again to open them up.  But not before taking a picture in front of the tree!
 MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

It was a total last minute decision, to take the presents to my mom's, but we're glad we did it. 

It definitely made the present opening last a whole lot longer.

 

Just look at this crowd!

 One thing about opening the presents all together is that it takes a long time to get back to your turn.

The girls did amazingly well at waiting for their turn.

 I guess except for Lucy that is.  But she was having problems no matter whose turn it was.

She was just plain miserable!

 We made a huge haul this Christmas and appreciate all who gave and sent us gifts.

 

 After the presents were all opened, we had a yummy breakfast of cinnamon rolls and wassail!
We then headed back to our house where...
Lucy took a nap!  Thank goodness!
Mark, Hannah, and I played a couple of rounds Cooties and Guess Who!
(Abby stayed at Grandma's and played with her doll!)

For dinner, it was back to my parents!
We played some games and broke out RockBand!
That's right.... ROCKBAND!

 Starring: Grandma Lisa as Lead Vocalist
With Grandpa Broc, Abby, and Hannah as back up singers!

 Hilary on the guitar!

 And Abby as back-up Drummer!

Can't get much better than the family LITERALLY rocking out to the Beatles!

Talk about ultimate bonding!

 

CHRISTMAS DAY WAS AWESOME!!!!
