Christmas 2012

Christmas this year was so much fun!  We have decided Christmas is way more fun now that we have kids and they are starting to understand the whole Christmas thing a little better.  Chad woke up early that morning and could hardly contain his excitement.  Our kids didn't wake up until after 8:30am...which was a great Christmas surprise for me!  We actually had to go in and wake them up because we couldn't stand it any longer.  Chad videoed us coming down and I completely walked past my gifts and walked the kids to their Santa gifts and stocking.  It was so fun to see their eyes light up at the sight of their new toys.  Chad forced me to go over to my gifts and I was shocked to see a new Canon Rebel sitting there.  I've wanted a new camera for quite a while now so I was thrilled.  Carson got a big crane from Santa and Brooklyn got a fun purse to play with along with lots of other gifts.  Carson spent about half of the day playing with all the boxes and wrapping paper playing garbage truck.  Yes, he is still obsessed!  It was so cute to watch him!  

Christmas day seemed to fly by!  We spent the morning playing with the kids and talking with Chad's family on the phone.  That night we went over to Jer and Randee's house for a Mexican feast.  It was delicious!  I am so grateful for the Christmas season and the chance to celebrate Christ's birth!  This Christmas was definitely one of my favorite and one that I will always cherish!
