We woke up Christmas eve, and thankfully we were done with the stomach flu.

We needed to run to the store and get all of the supplies for the big day.

I grabbed a cup of Green Tea for breakfast, and booted up my laptop for the kiddos.

The kids wanted to make sure that Santa wasn’t on his way to KS while we were at the store. I think they stayed on the NORAD tracks Santa site all day.

We got all of the groceries in and put away. After lunch we started making cookies for Santa. The kids decided on making no bake cookies, chocolate chip, and iced sugar cookies. We picked up some sprinkles at the store so we could make them cute.

The boys were really into decorating cookies.

Agnes was more into sprinkle eating than decorating.

The cookies were ready, and the kids wanted to check on Santa one more time.

Before we knew it, it was Christmas morning.

Thade was up at 3:30 a.m., luckily he decided to let us sleep in until 6:00 a.m.

Christmas morning was a blur or wrapping paper and kiddos running around the house.

I made some cinnamon rolls, and we had our little family Christmas.

Around lunchtime all of the family arrived, and it was time to celebrate.

The kids were a little excited.

Christmas was a lot of fun. It was so great getting to see all of our family too.

We spent the day together, and enjoyed a tasty dinner together too. The kids didn’t want anyone to go home though. They crashed out early from all of the Christmas fun.

I enjoyed some awesome fudge (from my mother in law) and watched the Christmas special of Doctor Who. It was such a fun Christmas this year.
