This year we spent a much needed relaxing Christmas morning at home "as a family"(as Sophia would say). Phia was up bright and early as she was super excited about Santa. She'd stayed up very late the night before sprinkling the grass with oatmeal and glitter to guide the reindeer to our house and of course she had to leave cookies and carrots for Santa and his reindeer too!! Mr. Preston slept a full 15 hours and didn't wake up until close to noon!! He's our sleepy head and LOVES to sleep so it didn't really surprise us! Santa brought the kids a climbing gym and slide for the backyard. Sophia's highlight was definitely her Dora chair that folds out to a little bed. Don't even think about looking at it, she'll race you to it and take the whole chair in fear you may want to actually sit in it with her!! Ay yay yay!! Preston loved all the excitement. I'd say his favorite gift was a red firetruck. He's obsessed with cars and trucks of all kind...he's ALLLLL boy!!
Phia kept saying "we have to leave Santa's cookies and the reindeer's carrots by the fire" so we did just that!!
Sophia sprinkling oatmeal and glitter so the reindeer could find their way to our house! It worked!!
Santa did a great job!!
Phia's face when she saw everything...
"Look mommy, Santa left crumbs!!"
Hi serious man:)
Mommy was exhausted...our bear looks too cute and tiny though:)
Mommy is too funny
Preston decided to join us(with his red fire engine in hand of course!
Santa brought the kids a Handy Manny tool bench where they can build all sorts of different things by listening to Mr. Manny tell them the directions:)
Presto and his new plush Buzz who he calls "Busta"!
Stocking time!
Phia's face when she saw the new climbing gym and slide outside(she calls it her "pirate ship")
And Presto(hoarding all the toys he could carry at one time) heading out to the "pirate ship"
"Ahoy Mateys!"
Preston's face says it all!
Bear was very happy on Christmas morning!
He doesn't look too jazzed here but he was showing off his moose outfit:)
