You can always tell when it is the week of Christmas Around here. We have friends and family coming over almost everyday and bringing the kids gifts. The toys are piling up and we still have a few days until actually Christmas!!
We also still have our cookies to bake. Aaron, Sarah and Elle are coming over Friday night. It is a tradition of ours to do cookies and presents right before Christmas. I am going to get the kids Kung fu panda 2 for when they get bored of baking and decorating the cookies. We ALWAYS make way to many but we also have a lot of fun doing it.
On Christmas Eve I always make a really nice big breakfast for everyone and we have a low key day. At night the kids get to open their stockings which are usually filled with a movie for each of them, and candy, and some other little goodies. Rob and I watch a movie with the boys and then put them to bed and once we KNOW they are passed out we wrap the gifts and get everything set for the morning.
Christmas morning we do their gifts here and then head to Robs moms house about mid morning to open all the other gifts and spend time with his family.I swear we need a moving van just to get everything back home! I can't wait. I love seeing how excited they are on Christmas morning. And I love just staying in our jammies all day and relaxing while the kids play with all their new toys. And I also like that Rob has time off work so we can spend time together as a family and also as just the two of us. It has been a very busy week and the next few days will be just as busy, but I know they will be fun! Hope everyone is ready for Christmas!
