We had a great Christmas. We had many fun gatherings with both sides of the family leading up to Christmas and on Christmas day. Christina's parents stayed with us the week of Christmas and we enjoyed having them here. The kids had lot of fun with Grandma and Grandpa Candland. Clarissa woke up crying at 6:00 a.m. Christmas morning and was not going back to sleep, so we sent in her to wake up her brothers. She continued crying and they popped right out of bed, ready to get going with Christmas. It's always fun to see them walk down the stairs and see what Santa left for them.
Here's what it looked like before the kids came down...
Not wasting any time...
Santa brought Clarissa a ride on Winnie the Pooh airplane with lights and sounds. So far Elijah has logged the most flight hours...
Carson got just what he wanted, a microscope and a watch...
Santa brought Elijah a red scooter and a Diego watch that he had been talking about for months. He also got an electronic drum set...
Clarissa got a dollhouse. It's nearly as tall as she is...
Carson got right to work with his telescope. We've had fun looking at all sorts of things...
Elijah loves playing with his new legos...
