Christmas TIME!!


For Christmas Eve we had the kids open their PJs and the presents that we all got each other. This was the first year that we all drew names and bought presents for each other. It made it really fun and exciting.
For Christmas this year we decided we were going to do it "small". This was great in theory, but because I start buying/hiding Christmas presents in July, we ended up discovering a bunch of things we had already bought and hid in different places around the house. So during our last minute wrapping, I kept having to send Dave to get the presents out of the attic, closet, under the bed, in my secret drawer, and in the trunk of Dave's car. So we ended up with more than we meant to. It was a lot of fun and super exciting to rediscover the presents we had fallen in love with throughout the year.

That last picture is my favorite. Carpeting the floor in presents. That's awesome.

Yes, folks...that is a Perry the Platypus shirt I am wearing. I can feel the jealousness oozing out of you.
