Christmas Day Events {Rachel}

These past couple days I have decided that Christmas time really IS the most wonderful time of the year. I could go on and on and on with reasons why I love it so much. So I will just stop here and write about Christmas morning. {The most wonderful part of this most wonderful time of the year!}

Christmas Morning:
Reed slept in our room downstairs, this is a little tradition we have, then when I finally got to sleep after waking up every half hour Reed awoke me at 5:51. He said, "Rachel.... Kate... Rachel wake up lets go! It's 5:51 come on, hurry!" I quickly awoke and up the stairs we marched making sure to cover our eyes when we passed the family room.

After mom and dad where awake they pulled out the cameras and started taking 10 thousand pictures, with the brightest flash that has ever been invented! Ok not really, but here it the good part... we walked out into the living room and I got these ginormous butterflys in my tummy! I found just what I had been wanting! Here is what we all found.

Dad: a hitch, {for the suburban... and hopefully a boat!}, power dome, blanket, lots of treats, and a phone case. Dad got a little jipped, like always, I guess. But the problem is he never says what he wants so he gets a bunch of crazy things! :)
Mom: iPhone 5, phone case, fuzzy blanket, purse, lotion, clothes, running shoes, ring, and some more mom things.
Rachel: camera {with a chevron striped strap!}, 5 pairs of shoes, huge pile of clothes, candy, headbands, lotion/body spray, ski jacket, lip gloss, journal, and some jewelry. The camera was my favorite!
Reed: ipod nano, baseball posters, A2000 {baseball mitt}, remote control helicopter, shoes, sweats, a new church suit! {he looks so handsome in it!} .
Kate: 6 pairs of shoes, baby doll clothes, clothes for her, duffel bag, jacket, bike, magnetic white board, office chair {for playing school}, plus more things that she was more than happy with!

Then we went over to the Baxter's for Christmas dinner.

Don't worry, I am working on my photography skills, so I can put this awesome camera to good use! We certainly had a Merry Christmas at this house!
Love,
