This face says it all...
At 7:00 Soph was up. I told her we had to wait for brother to wake up. We colored for a half an hour. I kept reminding her to be quiet so we didn't wake him. She just couldn't help it. She was much to excited. At 7:30 we were ready to see what Santa had brought. She ran in with the biggest smile, found her present and began tearing into them. After a few, we let her help Dawson open a few of his. He had no idea what was happening and at one point threw one of his presents. Soph went back to opening hers. My favorite reactions were to her Tinkerbell set that she has wanted forever, her pillowpet that in her words was "big, purple and heavy", and the Toy story 3 movie. Dawson loved his basketball hoop once it was open. He knew exactly what to do with the ball, and he danced with the music that plays when you make it. After all of the gifts were unwrapped, we opened all of the new toys and played for a few minutes. Then it was off to Gram and Papas for more presents and breakfast. We got some really fun things from them. Sophie loved her strawberry shortcake stuff. I got some really cute pictures and some power tools! Corey got some clothes and a book. I know you must be thinking I wrote that wrong, but I really did get power tools and I am super excited! I love making/refinishing things. Those tools are going to make my job so much easier. Dawsie got some cute trucks and a farm. We were very spoiled by family this year! Breakfast was delicious as always. Our traditional Christmas Casserole and fruit and since Corey has joined the fam, biscuits and gravy. I think that is becoming a favorite. We played and talked for a while and then went home for a rest. Sophie was asleep before we even pulled in the driveway. We live 2 minutes away from my parents. Corey took a rest too and Daws and I played with his new toys. We made our way to Lehi around 5 for our Christmas dinner. Again the food was delicious. Everyone was there, it is fun to have the whole family together. The cousins had a gift exchange and the rest of the evening was spent playing with toys. The boys played poker, a must whenever all of the boys are together. The girls chatted and bathed the kids. The babes both fell asleep on the way home. Corey and I exchanged our Christmas gifts and then very sleepily went to bed. It was a wonderful Christmas.
