Today we went over to my Grandma Jackie's house and visited with extended family. It was great to see everyone and spend time with them. Afterwards we headed over to my parents house and started the Christmas Festivities!
The cousins enjoyed playing with each other, we ate a quick dinner, and then Santa arrived!
Alex immediately went and sat with Grandma and Rhoslyn sat on the couch next to Gavin. She was excited to ring Santa's bells, but didn't want to get too close to him. When it was her turn to grab her present she took it from him and then sat down... there wasn't any hugging Santa. Alex pretty much did the same thing. Our kids just aren't too sure about that jolly ol' guy.
After Santa left it was time to unwrap the other gifts. Alex freaked out about getting the Death Star Jenga game from Grams and Gramps. It was priceless! Both of the kids were super excited about all of their gifts. Rhoslyn was so tired at that point. After we opened gifts and she got a super soft Hello Kitty blanky from Grams and Gramps she snuggled right up with mom and her new Minnie doll.
The kids fell asleep on the way home. They were too tired and pretty much still sleeping when we carried them in. So we told Alex that mom and dad would take care of leaving goodies out for Santa and his Reindeer.
We are looking forward to watching the kids open their gifts tomorrow morning!
Merry Christmas!
