We could ask for a Santa sighting, of course! And we got one! On the way to the candle light service on Christmas Eve, while at a stop light, we spotted Santa in a convertible (with the top down, mind you, in 0 degree weather) with lots of gifts in the back. Pretty crazy. Too bad for Bentley that Santa cruised through the green before Bentley got a good Santa affirming sighting. The adults in the car all saw Santa though, so we believe!
The Christmas photos:
The twins caught the unwrapping vision right away. In fact, they caught it a few hours before our official "start" and tried to rip into some gifts that did not belong to them - I guess they can't read labels yet?!! It was just as well we didn't get all the presents under the tree until Christmas Eve, as they may not have survived a week or two of scrutiny from the toddlers. Fun times.
One of the great things about having siblings close in age to you? Everyone gets their own gifts, but all of the gifts get to be shared. The kids have been having fun enjoying all the new loot - I don't think we went crazy with the gifts, but they certainly received quite the selection of presents between us and all the relatives. Lucky kids!
We were blessed to have such a fun filled Christmas, and I'm looking forward to more Christmas time memories with the kids in the coming years - while being thankful I have 11 months to get ready for the next one, that is!
