Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring…..ok that’s a lie….we were all stirring and excited to open family Christmas presents immediately following our traditional tamale dinner. Grandma and Grandpa were visiting for Christmas so they got to join in the fun.
“T” wanted science sets for Christmas and, as usual, Lego’s.
“J” didn’t know what she wanted so we got her lots of art supplies and a few of the usual suspects.
My favorite thing this year was sneaking around and getting the kids a few gifts that they had asked for during the fall. I loved surprising them with things they didn’t expect to get.
We had a fabulous time and everyone went right to sleep, eager to see what Santa would leave under the tree.

| Stirring...but just barely |
 |
| "J" shows grandma the gift she made for her out of pipe cleaners. |
 |
| Dad shows off his new Fighting Sioux hoodie (which he has worn every day since) |
 |
| "T" wanted this sign for his bedroom. He was pretty excited to get it. |
 |
| "J" didn't waste anytime finishing her sand art kit. |
 |
| Maybe a Zombie isn't the "best" Christmas present but I couldn't resist. |
 |
| All smiles in their new PJ's, a gift from our friends the Azelios. |
 |
| Santa wasted no time delivering presents as soon as the kids were asleep. |
