Christmas morning and the kids were instructed not to leave their bedrooms before 7 am. A was up about 5am and so full of excitement he could hardly stand it. But, he waited patiently in his room and around 7 it was time to see if Santa came! The kids headed downstairs and sure enough, the room was full of presents galore. Santa brought everything the kids wanted and they had a great time opening up presents. After presents we all enjoyed a big breakfast and then played with all our new toys for the rest of the day (mom and dad included!) Favorite Christmas presents this year included Rock Band for the Wii, a Baby Alive (she really pees!), a new kitchen for the little girls complete with pretend slice and bake cookies, an i-touch for mom and a slingbox for dad (to keep up with American tv while we are in Australia).
Then, later in the day we all enjoyed Christmas dinner complete with Christmas crackers. For those of you that don't know, you don't eat crackers. You pop them open and inside there is a little treat and a funny paper crown. This is a fun little Christmas tradition we picked up in England. Merry Christmas!
