While the kids were playing with Santa I was whipping up some Cinnabon Monkey Bread. It was really good but I like the traditional Monkey bread much better. We made sausage balls the night before so that we wouldn't be in the kitchen all morning on a busy day. Add some fruit and you have Christmas breakfast!!
Nana and Pawpaw came over extra early to see the kids with their Santa stuff! They were so excited to have them and the pups over! And Craig and I LOVED it too!! I would LOVE having a house full every holiday morning to be honest ;)
Getting ready to open presents!! We all had 5 a piece. (Yes...I am a little OCD) LOL
The kids rotated...youngest went first!! Then Craig and I went after them!
Kids were so into it this year! I just LOVED watching them open their things from us.
Max's big gift from us!! A Leapfrog GS and lots of games to go with it!!
Emery was quick to tear into her gifts and wanted to make sure every little piece of paper was off before she would even really look at what she got! Ha!
Opening up the games to go with his Leapfrog system!!
Emery was LOVING her princess purse filled with goodies!!
"Oh YES!!" someone was a little pumped about his Dodgeball game!!
Emery's big gift from us....Fisher price Snap and Style Dolls and a few outfits!!
Kids helping us with our stockings and gifts!!
Craig opening my favorite gift to him....a Shutterfly mouse pad with some pics of the kids and a sweet message!
This was probably his FAVORITE gift minus the mouse pad ;)
I was loving all my little happies! My real gift was the camera I got recently.
BEST CAMERA EVER!! I am absolutely LOVING it!! A little too much....
Having fun with our MESS!!!
We don't clean up till the end...just seems more fun to see the mess everywhere once a year ;)
Max with his gifts...Dallas Cowboys shirt and hat, Gator golf game, Dodgeball game, Leapfrog GS system, charger, case and 6 different games for the system!
Emery with her gifts...Cinderella coach, Princess barbies, Fisher price Snap and Style dolls and outfits, and a 3 piece kitchen set (toaster, coffee maker and mixer/blender).
Craig's gifts...Oregon Temp/Rain gauge, Memphis jacket, Memphis workout shorts, 2 sleeveless dryfit workout shirts, Ford LS shirt, Picture mouse pad, workout socks, the book Bringing Up Girls and some candy!
My gits...TN tag, workout pants, Vera Bradley wallet, iHome speakers, 2 movies, a TN ornament and notepad, TN water bottle, and a 32 memory card for my camera!
A quick family pic!! I forgot and had my dad come back in to take one real quick before they left. It isn't the best but they had things to do at their house to get ready for Christmas so I figured we would get a better one later...
Such a FUN packed morning! We stayed at home till about noon and played, played, and played some more!! Then we all showered and dressed to head over to Nana and Pawpaw's house!!
