HIGH: IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY :)
LOW: Christmas is over after today :(
This was by far the best Christmas EVER! Claire was super into it this year and Oliver is here to enjoy the day as well!
Claire was the first one up (at 9am thank you very much) and she waited ever so patiently for Oliver to get up. She is such a great big sister! Finally, at around 10 am Oliver woke up and it was CHRISTMAS TIME!!!
Here is Claire getting Oliver pumped to see if Santa came.
Claire was so excited to see that Santa had come! She wanted Oliver to have the first present :)
Then, of course, she had to help him open it!
Daddy got what he always wanted!! He finally got a nightstand for his side of bed!
Claire loved playing with her new jewelery box and jewelery.
"Where are MY PRESENTS?!?!?"
So many gifts!!!!
Claire wanted this "Santa on a bike" soooo badly!!
She must have been a good girl because Santa bought it for her.
Santa filled up those stockings!
Poor Oliver, I could not find a stocking with an O on it anywhere so I had to cut out a paper O and tape it to this one! Sorry Buddy, we will find you one for next year!
Claire loved her new bike video game!
Daddy got her some super sweet shin guards for soccer this summer!
Claire got some fancy new press on nails from Santa.
Claire loved putting makeup on her new makeup doll.
After a good nap and some serious cleaning up, it was time to go to Auntie Rose's for some more holiday fun!
Claire loved playing with her "favorite friend" Leah.
So cute.
Oliver enjoyed having lunch with Leah.
Then...Santa stopped in!
Claire was so happy to see him!
And what would Christmas be without ANOTHER picture of my kids with Santa!!
So long Santa! See ya next year!!!!
After Santa left Oliver started to get a little sleepy. How awesome is this face?!?!
Then Justin strapped on "The Vest" and handed out some more presents!!
Claire, Lauren, and Justin loved coloring.
The twins and Claire.
Nana has the touch and Oliver fell asleep. Just in time for us to go to another party.
This picture pretty much sums up Claire and Owen opening gifts together.
ROCK STAR!
Hmmmm maybe they will start a band???
Even with all the presents Owen still had time to give Oliver a smooch.
I think this may be one of my favorite pictures from Christmas. Sorry Di, I know you hate being on the blog but COME ON!!! This picture is the best!!!!!
Finally, presents are done and the kids are somewhat calming down.
I could eat this little guy up!!!
So could Auntie Erin!
On a sadder note, this is the ornament that Claire made for Mark for Christmas (I got a beautiful necklace, that I LOVE). Unfortunately, it is made of rice and falling apart. We had to say farewell to this ornament. You are gone but not forgotten. I am not gonna lie, Mark and I were a total mess about saying goodbye to this ornament! It was really sad but we have this picture to always remember it by!
Overall, this was the BEST Christmas EVER!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
