Both of them did get to open 1 gift on Christmas Eve! However, it is only because Joey acted like he lost. Their gifts? Each of them unwrapped a pair of pajama pants that we bought just for Christmas morning. We were going to give the pj's to them early anyway...we just thought we'd toy with them a little and make them think that this was the year that they were victorious. Imagine their faces when we told them about our little scheme. Hahaha! I honestly don't think either of them will beat their dad at arm wrestling any time soon. :)
Joey was the first person awake on Christmas morning. Cullen and I weren't far behind, but Joey actually had to wake Hayden up so they could open presents. It's pretty much the same routine every year. Everyone heads downstairs, I'm usually the last one down because I have to make sure I look halfway presentable. I'm not sure why though since I'm the person who takes the pictures. I didn't take many photos this year and I'm not thrilled with the ones that I did take. Oh well. Some is better than none, right?
Even puppies need love, especially on Christmas!
I thought it was funny how Lexi's eyes showed up red & green in this pic.
Cullen made out pretty well for himself this year.
Hayden asked for Nerf stuff, and he got it.
Overall I'd say that Christmas was good. It had it's difficult moments, but the kids were happy. That's all that truly matters to me. As long as they are happy, I am happy. Between Joey and myself, we also had a wonderful Christmas dinner. Not to mention plenty of leftovers to nom on for a few days. We are blessed.
