Christmas Day

The kids woke up bright and early (well, actually it was just their normal time) to see if Santa came to visit him. It was a bit touch and go for a while as to whether or not any or all three were on the naughty list. 

EK was thrilled with her doll bed. 

Walker almost took out his sisters/furniture/window with his new baseball bat and glove. 

Emma loves a doll, so she was happy to have her own American Girl doll to go in the new doll house. 

My parents came over to our house for breakfast and to check out the loot. We then went over to their house to open gifts and hang out for the day. It was a bit odd with only my parents and my crew being there but we had a good time. We face timed with the newlyweds in St. Lucia, Jordan and Ross in Maryland, and with Aunt Carolyn. Technology is pretty great when it can bring people together when they can't actually be together!

Emma was all about the gift opening. Our family has always taken turns and opened gifts one at a time so everyone can see what's inside and it helps to make the present opening last longer. Well, Emma was not interested in the way we do things and just ripped through her gifts like a Tasmanian devil. The adults just decided to open gifts after the littles were finished. 

EK loved all the new additions for her house! 

Silly boy! He loves a truck!

Emma got a baby doll who she named "Mamie."  My girls apparently think all babies should be named after Gordon kids!  We now have Mary Reeves and Mamie!  So sweet!

Etch a sketching is serious business!

The kids were very helpful during the gift opening portion of the day. 

EK immediately had to assemble her Lego set after she finished opened no her gifts. She loves to build. 

He's all boy!

Sister girl was sporting some vintage Christmas gear circa 1982-ish. My mom cross stitched these for me and now baby girl gets to wear them. Love. 

Thanks Kay Kay and G for a fun filled Christmas Day!

It was really a great one!
