Christmas Day 2014

After the madness of Christmas morning, we got dressed and went to spend time with my parents.  Ma and Pap came over  abit later for Christmas lunch and good quality family time.  The pictures posted out of order and Blogger won't let me choose the order I want to post like it used to, so you get PJ picutres first and dressy pictures last.
 
Lorelai and her new Monster High doll.

A photo of the kids with all four grandparents.  Love it!
Lorelai and Pap relaxing on the couch.
Maybe Lorelai got a little TOO relaxed.
Miller Man and his Granddaddy.

Our napkin rings doubled as bowties.

Photos of the fab four.



A quiet moment for Lorelai and Anna.
Miller looks SO old in this one and so tall. 



If I didn't do pictures so close to the time they're sent out this one would definitely be on our Christmas card next year. Beautiful!





A few pictures taken on the back stairs before we left for Simpsonville.

Christmas Morning Chaos

The kids had a great Christmas this year.  Lorelai woke up at 4 AM and had to be dissuaded until 7 AM when she could go wake up Miller who was sleeping soundly.  First things first, Santa had tasted our yummy sugar cookies and loved the chocolate milk we left for him.
 
Santa even moved our Christmas Countdown Calendar to the 25th.
Here is a picture of the trees before the madness of unwrapping began.
The first reaction as they round the back of the couch!!

 
Lorelai's most requested gift-a telescope!



Our little ninja turtle fan got the complete set of action figures.

Dinosaur legos-Rrrrrrrr!
A perfect shot of Miller emptying his stocking.

Giving one of his ninja turtle a giant hug.
A floor mat of the ninja turtle lair and city complete with shooting discs to take down the bad guys.


Miller's haul.
Lorelai got one of the Monster High dolls from their new line.
When you take her wig off and push her brain her eyes change color.

Lorelai's goodies from Santa.

This year it was my turn to make the sausage and egg casserole I grew up eating every Christmas.  It was delicious!
Eating breakfast and looking kind of bored while paying one of our new games Hedbandz.

Getting frustrated with Hedbandz.

Moving on to playing Fibber.
