Well, it's January 8th, so I guess it's about time I start blogging about Christmas! We did things a little differently this year and decided to let the kids open their gifts from each other a few days early It was awesome and we will always do it this way in the future. They were so aware who the gift was from and SO thankful towards each other. There was lots of hugging!
Here is Jilly opening her gift from Calvin...
A PRINCESS COUCH that folds into a bed?!! Thank you!!
Nathan was super excited to open a remote control Mater from Calvin. Just what he wanted!
Jilly got some new furniture and a grandma for her dollhouse from Nathan. She was thrilled!
I don't have pictures, but Jilly got each of the boys a movie. Nathan got a Veggie Tales movie about Jonah, and Calvin got Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Side note.....when we were driving to the cities that week Nathan asked Calvin if he wanted to watch Wimpy Diarrhea Kid. THAT does NOT sound like a good movie.
Anyway, the final gift was a popular one. Nathan got Calvin Pokemon cards, which he had been asking for, and an awesome game called Connect 4 Launchers. We all had a great time trying it out!
Finally, here is Jillian calling Nana to tell her about her presents. Is this what she'll look like when she's 15 or what?!
This was such a special night as a family. It really made us smile to watch the kids be so appreciative and loving towards each other. Good for a Mama's heart.
