Christmas Day in our Town

This morning we awoke to the sights and sounds of Christmas. Santa visited us a day early. Being so far North really pays off. We plan to leave for Oregon tomorrow if the weather cooperates. The kids woke up at various times throughout the night wandering into the living room to see what Santa had left. At one point Bruce got up and found Parker in the living room with all of his presents around him sound asleep. The one thing we told the kids before we went to bed was not to wake us until 7am. They faithfully obeyed this command. Various times throughout the night, they enjoyed going through their stockings and finding the many treasures inside while Bruce and I enjoyed the comforts of our bed. At 7am sharp they woke us and we enjoyed a relaxed morning. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Why can I totally see Parker sleeping with his presents?. My two oldest were up at 2 a.m. Too bad we're not nice and we sent them back to bed.

Fun to hear about your Christmas Morning and see our beautiful Grandchildren. It was great to have Nicole here for Christmas. She really spoiled her parents too much.
