Christmas Fun

We had a last day change of plans at our house, when Drew volunteered to cover for someone at work on Christmas morning. It gave the other guy time at home on Christmas day with his family and Drew got double time pay! Bonus for everyone.

So we surprised the kids with a Christmas Eve opening of presents.

As you can see they thought it was a good idea and I believe this little change of plans really helped us to avoid the over kill of excitement and activity on Christmas day.

Three of the kids getting their stockings.

Caleb and Hannah with some crazy modeling of their new pajama pants made by big sister Erinn.

Drew with his new quilt I made a couple of months ago.

And this made all the effort worth it.
Seriously!

My sweet husband with his knives he has been wanting for years.

I would put some of me with my gifts, but my 'sweet' husband was having fun taking pictures of me yawning and such! Guess you will miss out on those-LOL

Snuggling with Drew's new blanket.

On Christmas Hannah received her Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy doll lovingly made by Grandma.

My sister, Carol, and her husband, David, came for the day too. Carol was fighting a migraine all day and was quite the trooper.
Oh and by the way, yes, my sister is married to a David too.
Oh and so is my little sister!
Yep, all three of us married David's--kinda strange, but it makes family gatherings fun!

Dad and their new puppy, Anna.

Hoping your day was filled with as many fun memories as ours was!
