"Never worry about the size of your Christmas tree. In the eyes of children, they are all 30 feet tall."
-Larry Wilde
Christmas preparations happened in a rush in the days leading up to Christmas, but it was made easier by a few helpers who were happy to wrap and make cookies for Santa.
The traditional Christmas Eve dinner at Joe T. Garcia’s was a lot of fun as it always is. It’s amazing to think this tradition has been in our family for going on 25 years now.
After dinner the reindeer food was spread on the driveway, Christmas PJ’s were donned, and cookies were set out for Santa.
Christmas #1: Christmas started with the kids sleeping in, which is strange since James rarely sleeps in. We gave them permission to come in our room and wake us up if they got up early but instead the parents were awake before the kids.
Christmas #2: This year we had Christmas breakfast at Aunt Lisa and Uncle Jeff’s house. Uncle Jeff did all the cooking and the kids did all the eating. After breakfast the kids opened up another batch of presents and had fun with PePa.
Christmas #3: The next stop was at Nina and Papa’s. The kids had yet more fun tearing open presents. Isla ended up taking a nap with Nina, apparently three Christmas’ is her limit.
Christmas #4: Off to Grandma and Grandpa Wolfe’s for Christmas dinner. Oh yeah, more presents!
Thanks everyone for a fantastic day. Merry Christmas everyone!
