christmas eve...

Our family tradition is to open presents on Christmas Eve as we are busy running around all day on Christmas. Since Brian is home all day, we decided to open presents this morning.

Well after Ava went and got her hair cut. Shocking isn't it?


I never seem to capture the present opening but did get some of the aftermath.


There is wrapping paper covering the floor.


Many homemade gifts. This one is made by Ava to Molly.


Gifts that Mom swore she would never buy and then bought because her daughter really wanted them.


Brian putting batteries and assembling everything.

Lots of candy eaten and kids going all over the house playing with each others toys. Now I need to get working on last minute gifts to extended family. It's nice because the kids are too busy with new toys to fight. Right?
