Christmas Day

At long last, Christmas morning arrived. George was ready! Grace was excited, too, and they quickly got Lauren on board. 

And then Grammie!

The trio checked out their stockings, and then exchanged sibling gifts. 

Weeks ago, George had carefully picked out rings for his sisters at Santa shop, and they loved them! They gifted George a new pair of tennis shoes and a Snoopy blanket.  

After that they enjoyed some favorites... Legos

Books....

Converse sneakers...

Slime, because one can never have too much slime.  

Gran and Poppa came by with MORE PRESENTS! 

After three days of secret planning and work, the trio gifted the family with their creation: a board game. They created and made a board game called Christmas Evolution. Poppa read over the (very detailed) instructions, and we are all looking forward to when we can play.  

Lots of goodies.  

Lots of hugs...

and snuggles...

More books...

Santa brought monogrammed leotards for dance.

And Harry Potter pajamas. 

Lots of clothing...

A trinket or two...

And a big surprise... Chromebooks. Santa knew how much they were needed for school.  

We also got some fun presents. 

And MORE PRESENTS from Grammie.

While all of those presents were admittedly fun, we are especially thankful for the birth of our Savior and for the gift of family. 

And we hope your Christmas was full of love and wonder.
