We had such a wonderful Christmas this year! Christmas Eve was at Mimi and Papa's so we all played and even one napped before we headed out. When we got there Mimi had tons of food cooked and waiting for us! We all sat and chowed down on yummy lasagna and all the extras. After we got done eating it was time to open the presents. The boys jumped right in and started handing out presents. Nathan was doing a great job but has a little trouble reading the names still. He was able to recognize his and Nolan's which was fun for him to pile up.
Nolan kept walking around with the one present trying to give it to everyone . He decided to sit on a present under the tree and rest until everyone was done.
After the presents were handed out it was time to open! Nathan jumped right in and started opening what seemed like a million presents from Mimi and Papa. He was so excited.
Nolan was more interested in walking around and visiting with everyone. He was not opening any so Chad helped out and kept him interested in what seemed like a never ending pile of presents!
After all the boxes were opened Mimi said she had another surprise for the boys. WE went in the bedroom and came out with their new KITCHEN! Nathan was so excited!!! He has wanted a kitchen to make his play food in for a while. He immediately put on his new Chefs outfit Mimi got him and went to cooking. They have both played with it everyday since then. It is a huge hit in this house.
After presents we all got to hang out and visit with everyone. It was getting late so we got the boys in their pajamas for the ride home. Daddy and Nathan got on the computer to track where Santa was so we wouldn't miss him. He was in Brazil! We had to get home quick.
We loaded everyone and the toy store in the car and headed home.
When we got home we ran outside and sprinkled out reindeer food all over the front yard so they could see where to land. We also had to put out some of Santa's special cookies we made. Nathan picked out 3 , one for him, the reindeer and his helper.
Then it was off to bed! Nathan told me before he went to sleep that he wasn't sure if he could listen to his nighttime Christmas music because Santa might think he was awake. He thought a while longer and said " Oh Santa will know I am asleep, he is Santa" He turned on his nightly Christmas tunes and feel asleep before I even got downstairs.
This was perfect because Santa's helpers had A LOT to get down before morning
