Christmas Fun.

Somehow between all the December activities we manged to pull of getting ready for Christmas although I may have been up until 1 two nights in a row before Christmas actually wrapping presents. Let's just saw I am typically one of those people with Christmas done in November but will all the extra rehearsals and such it just didn't happen this year. 
We spend Christmas Eve with my sister Michelle and Kimberly. WE had a great meal and then some games and the Nativity. We had a mini piano recital after and sang some Carols. 
We headed home and opened our Christmas Eve present. I even managed to pull of matching pajamas for the first time!!! 

 I could not get Madie to look up. 
I'm not going to lie, Christmas morning was a bit chaotic this year. It was a mix of squeals of joyful excitement and screams of frustration as Levi tried to steal every single toy that was opened. We did our best to keep him distracted by opening his own but he wasn't going to let everyone else's presents go unnoticed or unplayed with either. But we survived and overall it was more happy that arguing so that is a win :)
All Titus wanted this year was a firetruck with a long ladder. He was so excited to see Santa got him exactly what he wanted.
Madie's favorite gifts by far were her new baby doll and her doctors kit. And the fact that she could then play doctor with a patient that wouldn't run away was even better.
Levi loves pulling his Fisher Price phone along with him. Even to the table.

And to make things even better we woke up to a white Christmas! It had been raining on and off all week but no snow.  Even coming home Christmas Eve it was still just light rain. Then Christmas morning snow! We made the kids wait until after we got back from church but once we got back they had a great time.
