We woke up Christmas morning to find that Santa had visited the house. Landon was really into Santa and asked a lot of questions this year. We left cookies, milk and carrots out for Santa and the reindeer! Landon was really concerned that he would hear Santa because his bedroom is right above the living room and he didn't want to hear him because then Santa wouldn't be happy. Santa left stockings full of fun things and a couple of presents under the tree. The kids all woke up EARLY that day and so we had opened all the presents by 7:00! After presents we had some donuts from Casey's and played with the new toys for a little bit before getting ready to go to Grandma and Grandpa Kruse's house to celebrate with them and Jon, Emily and Braxton. We had a fun day opening presents, crafting, playing games and toys and lots of good food! It was fun to have 2 little ones at Christmas again, they didn't care about the presents but liked the paper and boxes! Next year should be more interesting as Mabel and Braxton get older and interact more with each other! We had a brunch meal with eggs, sausage gravy, biscuits, rolls and fruit. Then for supper we had prime rib with the sides and some good brownies for dessert! After supper Mabel was ready to head home so Nolan, Mabel, Mommy and Daddy headed home and Landon was lucky to have a stay over with Grandma and Grandpa and Braxton! Another successful, fun Christmas Day!
