Christmas was a dream. The kids were so excited they could hardly sleep the night before. In the morning I got up just early enough to put the cinnamon rolls in the oven and take a picture of the tree before everyone ran downstairs.
We like to do stockings first, then eat breakfast, then open presents. We have kind of a weird stocking system. I have two sets of stockings that we love so, one set stays up on the wall for decoration and a different set gets set up and filled during the night. Most of our stocking stuffers came from the dollar store, like usual.
Then time for presents. I tried to keep it minimal, but it somehow always ends up feeling like so many presents. Beatrix didn't really know how to use her potty.
Once that was finished the morning was full of games and family time. It was great.
The kids helped make Christmas dinner.
