Christmas!

Lining up to go see what Santa brought!

We had a very full day on Christmas day!  First we opened presents here at our house.  Grandma Curtis came over for a little bit in the morning to give her gifts.  Then we went to Grandma and Grandpa Stout's house and went to church with them.  We also got to talk to Alan's sister Angela on her mission!  Then we had Christmas dinner with the Curtis families at Grandma Curtis' house.  Whew!  What a wonderful day.

Santa brought large gift for each of the kids, plus several small gifts.  Jared got a fun new game (Forbidden Desert) and Maggie and Evelyn got My Little Pony sets.  Santa also brought each of the kids their own themed cereal.  Abby even got some baby rice cereal!

We ended up getting quite a few new games this Christmas and have enjoyed playing all of them: Forbidden Desert, Skip-bo, R2D2 Bop-It, Five Crowns, Quiddler, and Machi Koro.

Here are some more candid shots of our chaos on Christmas morning:

This is one of those things in which you can make impressions of something.  I love the mess of our living room in the background.
