It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
I do really like Christmas music (I have almost 3-gigabytes of just holiday music in iTunes), but Christmas is definitely not my favorite holiday. It is a lot of fun with kids though.
We got woken up, as usual, by an early morning phone call and the kids woke up as soon as they heard voices. Saedi and Gavin were so excited. The big kids had to wait until I changed diapers for the little ones, then we went down to the living room all together.
They got exactly what they asked for from Santa, so he must have decided they could be on the nice list again this year (although, for Gavin, I think it may have been a difficult decision).
Saedi got Heelys,
and Gavin got a Lightning McQueen GeoTrax “just like he saw at the store!”
All in all, everyone was happy with what they got. It was all very nice. I made cinnamon rolls for breakfast and we hung out at home all day. We had a delicious but very easy dinner – Honey Baked Ham and au gratin potatoes with Sister Schubert’s Parker House Rolls and steamed corn (everything either precooked or heat and serve).
