Our Christmas could not have been any better this year with multiple celebrations and lots of time with our families it was my idea of perfect. It was just the 4 of us in our house on Christmas morning and we were able to have a very mellow time opening gifts and eating breakfast. Of course Riley was bursting to get downstairs the second that she opened her eyes, her sister had no idea what was awaiting her so she was pretty happy to just hang out in bed.
Santa came!!!! For Riley, he left a Barbie jeep and the Merida bow and arrow that she had asked for. Piper was equally spoiled with a new high chair and xylophone. While the girls played with the fun new things that Santa left, we camped out our coffee table so that we could have breakfast in front of our Christmas tree.
Piper though it was pretty nice of Santa to leave a little bit of cookie left on the plate just for her...so she finished off.
All filled up on French toast (and leftover cookies), the girls we ready to unwrap some presents from under the tree. Since it was just us, we took our time and there plenty of breaks from opening to just to hang out and play with their new things. It was just exactly what we had hoped for our morning to be!
I got a much needed new pair of Ugg slippers...my morning was made!
We had a white Christmas this year...who doesn't love that? Especially when it means that you can drive your new car around in the house? Riley was a pretty good driver and Piper figured out how to turn on the radio, you could not wipe the smile off of their faces. Pipey loves everything about the Barbie Jeep and has even figured out how to strap herself in...trouble!
Later in the morning we had Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Nick over for lunch...and more presents. Riley was pretty excited the new Barbie dress and electric guitar that she had asked for and she treated us all to show.
We had a great afternoon hanging out with our family and after the girls had a much needed rest, we headed back to Gigi and Pop's for chili and games with the McGuffees.
Jordan in his Santa robe and Piper in her Santa suit...she wasn't the only one who was scared.
We had a completely fabulous holiday and could not have had more to be thankful for this year!
