Christmas Part 2

On Christmas Eve we went over to my mom's house for supper and gift exchange. On our way over to mom's Luke said "we cannot stay at memaw's house long, b/c I don't want Santa to miss us." I thought this was so funny b/c anytime we go to memaw's and his cousins are there.... he never wants to leave. Once we got home from mom's, Christian and I anxiously waited for the kids to fall asleep. Once they did, our work began.

The Before Shot (it took over 2 hours to assemble the kitchen.... it was a late night)

The kids were very sweet to us and didn't wake up until 7:30. It was so priceless to hear and see them on Christmas morning.

"Luke... I am your faather!"

Unlike most children that toss gifts with clothes in them to the side, my darlin' daughter loves them and wants to put each new outfit on as soon as she opens it! (I see nothing wrong w/ that)

The After Shot (the damage has been done)

The new addition to our backyard.... Luke's trampoline!

After Christmas was over, I asked the kids what their favorite thing about Christmas was:

Luke- "Hearing Santa on the roof."

Carman- "The reindeer ate the carrots!"

I love it! Now that I have children, I cannot imagine what I will do when they grow up and don't believe anymore. I love the magic!
