Christmas

I know this is going to be surprising, but I didn't take any pictures of Christmas morning.

This year we tried something different with the presents. We decided to give the kids 3 gifts to represent the 3 wise men. Those were from mom and dad, then Santa brought a family gift. It seemed to work out and the kids didn't complain. I think we are going to keep up this tradition.

Santa got us a fish tank. He has each kid open a present that went into the tank. Tessa opened the rock that goes in the bottom. Tessa loves, I mean loves to collect rock, so that was a perfect gift to have her open. Kaylie opened a coral and Jackson a wrecked pirate ship. Millie got to open some plants. He wanted each of the kids to pick out their own fish. Thurs. Megan and Steve took them to pick one out. It did take them a while to pick the right one for them, but we got them home and named. Tessa's is Molly, Kaylie's is Sally, Jackson's is Bolt and Millie's is Belle. The kids are having fun watching what they do. Millie likes to talk to them.

I hope all of you had a great Christmas!!!
