Christmas Morning...


I know for sure that BJ and I were more excited than our girls for Christmas. Neither one of us slept very well. BJ finally got out of bed at 6 am and went and plowed the driveway. I went downstairs at 7am when I couldn't lay in bed any longer. I asked BJ should we wake up the girls or wait. We woke up the girls at 7:30am and as you can see by their smiles they weren't to upset with us. McKell was so excited over her stocking. She also pulled everything out of Kenni's. She got to open everyones presents. BJ and I once again bought presents for the girls without the other one because we think it is fun to find out what the other one bought.

Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Earl spent the night at the hospital with Grandma Olsen. They were very tired after staying up most of the night with Grandma. The weather combined with the fact that Grandma and Grandpa had a sleep over meant that our Christmas breakfast ran a little behind but it was well worth it. I love biscuits and gravy or SOS. It was delicious. We all got to visit and then it was time to open presents. McKell thought because she got to open all of the presents earlier in the day that she was going to be able to open everything again. It caused a problem until we got her to understand that she only got to open her presents. Thanks to everyone for our presents. Grandma Kathy made McKell and I our own special aprons and we love them she did a great job.

Christmas night we had White Chili and went with Juan and Kinsey to the movie. Thanks to Uncle Cory for the great recipe we have made good use of it since we got it. We had a great Christmas and are looking forward to New Year's. We pray for Grandma Olsen and Love her alot!!

So glad you had a great Christmas! Kids make it so so fun! I love the idea of buying things separately so it is a surprise.
I wish you the best for your grandma.
