One thing I forgot about yesterday's post...We had a great Christmas Eve breakfast at Jesse's brother's house...And a great Christmas Eve Dinner at Jesse's aunt's house!
Jesse's aunt also makes an amazing Apple Crumble Pie...
So Christmas Jesse's mom made it over early in the AM, and surprisingly Jesse and I got up early too.
Guess who didn't get up so early?
The kids.
When they finally were woken up it was probably about 8 AM. I'm not sure though, I wasn't checking my watch. Jesse's niece got lots of princess stuff, make-up, and nail polish while his nephew got lots of Star Wars and Iron Man toys.
The kids opening gifts.
Uncle Jesse wearing one of Evan's Christmas gifts.
Alana showing off her new outfit.
Jesse playing bartender at Christmas Dinner.
Jesse and I did manage to make a Starbucks run mid-day...And picked up some treats for dinner and the next morning.
Stryker and Logan ripping Logan's new toys apart.
Our day was rounded out by playing with the kids, Evan learning lots of new magic tricks, and a big Christmas dinner.
Last but not least:
365 Project Photo!
My focus was to get up early (didn't happen), work out (didn't happen), take the dog out (done!)...Then I got the urge to make some treats (done!) before heading to a battalion meeting to round out the evening.
These pictured are chocolate mint kiss brownies.
Have a good one.
