Merry Christmas 2013

We had an awesome Christmas.  Here is the promised picture of our tree actually decorated.  These are all the presents under our tree too...kind of insane, but luckily Santa only fills stockings and brings 1 gift, so it doesn't get much crazier.
Santa dropped by on Christmas Eve with some new pjs.
The kids loved the tree.
We finally got the exersaucer down for Bode so she could enjoy some time sitting up while Christmas craziness happened around her.
The kids each open a gift of their choice on Christmas Eve.  Raegan got pjs for her and her doll that matched from Grandma and Grandpa Willerth.
Harrison got a mining Lego City Lego set from Grandma and Grandpa Willerth.
Our tree on Christmas Eve night when we are all tucked in our beds.
Santa Came!
Christmas morning all in our pjs but before checking out the goods from Santa.

Getting into the stockings and seeing what Santa brings is a favorite.  Raegan loved her new Bear Chair.
Harrison loved his Legos and chocolate from Santa.

The Ward tradition of Christmas Crunch.

The organized chaos of opening presents.

And there weren't a lot more pictures because it was a different sort of Christmas.  We didn't do a big breakfast and we do a big dinner on Christmas eve, but a big chunk of our day was spent resting, playing with new things and talking to this awesome missionary in Ukraine.  It was great to see her and talk to her and she "met" Bode for the first time.
It was a great, layback Christmas and I wouldn't have it any other way.  It truly is the most wonderful time of the year!
