Merry merry merry!

December

We had a simple, sleepy, blessed Christmas. The kind where the kids are old enough to savor and appreciate every moment and gift. To open slowly so it lasts all day. A Christmas where where we drank mimosas and coffee and chatted and stopped to eat breakfast and snacks. The kind of perfect day that I truly didn't want to end.

 We set up Jeremy's phone on Christmas Eve to see if we could catch Santa and sure enough, we did! The kids are watching Santa stack presents in front of our tree, snack on the cookies they left him and then finally he discovered our camera and covered it up!

 It wouldn't be Christmas without watching the cats unwrap their present for a painfully long time. Cats don't always follow directions. Or tear off paper quickly.

And one of our favorite gifts. Every year we give the kids a gift made by Jeremy and I with love. From their bunkbed to blankets to pillow cases covered with love. This year we put all of our pictures from Hawaii into a photo album they can look at over and over. It was a big hit on Christmas morning.
