finally christmas eve arrived. growing up, we had a tradition of opening one present on christmas eve. usually new pajamas that we could wear that night. we have decided to continue that tradition for our children now. all of the girls (grace, raegan, and aurora) got the same pjs. it was so cute! they were very excited to open a present the day before christmas. i was surprised how excited raegan got. she loved tearing that paper off!
christmas day came the next morning, just as expected. since all of the kids are younger, there wasn't that 6 a.m. rush to wake up and open presents. we actually had a very relaxed morning and started opening presents at about 8. there was complete chaos while presents were opened, paper flew everywhere and by the end, there was a big mess! grace and raegan loved their presents. we have decided as a family tradition that each year our children will only get 4 presents... something to read, something to wear, something to do, and something to play with. we hope that it will help them focus more on the savior and not so much on gifts they will get. they had a great time. here is a picture of nana and papa with all the kiddos, then one of grace and raegs on christmas morning.
