Christmas Memories

     What a wonderful Christmas!  It was so full of precious memories and so much laughter.  I love to hear my children laugh, it has to be one of my greatest joys.  Christmas Eve morning started early with Breakfast at Daniel's parent's with his Dad's family.  There is always plenty of food and lots of special time together.  Christmas Eve is also Daniel's Mom's birthday, so we try and celebrate it just as merrily as we celebrate Christmas.  After breakfast we headed home for a few hours before heading over to my Aunt Jean's house for my Mom's family get together.  We always have such a great time together and this year we had a new addition, my cousin Sarah's little boy, Hudson.  After we left there it was of course time for bed in anticipation of our chubby, red suited visitor.  The girls were so excited and got their PJs on right away so they could help fix Santa's snack and write him a little note.
     Christmas morning came early.  Daniel was up by 5:30am because he was so excited, I was up at 6:15am and the girls got up a little before7am, we of course had to wake up John Mac.  We enjoyed our gifts from Santa and from each other before Daniel's parent's and Amber arrived at 8:30am.  We opened our presents from them and enjoyed our traditional Christmas morning breakfast that Granny brings of eggs and sausage scrambled together, which make the best sandwiches ever.  Around 10:30am we headed over to my parent's for our gift exchange with them.  It was a wonderful Christmas! I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas!
