Christmas Morning

Our Christmas morning was perfect! It is our family tradition that the girls wake us up, we hurry downstairs to see what Santa brought, as we wait for our yummy cinnamon rolls to bake. We eat breakfast while watching the Disney Christmas parade and then open the family gifts. Then we play with all of our new things {after fighting with the little plastic twist ties that hold the $10 toy in the box} surrounded by wrapping paper, boxes, new things, candy wrappers and more!! We were scheduled to drive to Ida Grove to spend the evening with Ryan's parents... but due to the 20.5" of snow they got things got delayed!! We carefully watched the DOT website as all of the roads turned orange {travel NOT advised}. So instead, we spent the day in our jammies playing games and eating leftovers. Not what we planned, we were disappointed we couldn't leave, but I wouldn't have changed the day one bit :)

4 friends had to say...:
