Our Christmas Day

After a very festive Christmas Eve, Christmas Day was all about relaxing, cuddling,
and eating some of the most delicious food imaginable.  We woke up very early on
Sunday morning and brought the girls into the living room where Santa had left them
a beautiful display of presents.  We all sat on the floor around the tree, opening one gift
at a time, oohing and aahing over the special treasures wrapped up so sweetly.  Isabelle
was most excited about an interactive puppy named Jingle who came with a special
book.  Brees got a little pink baby doll that she hasn't let go of since.  Shawn and I gave
each other one small gift each: earrings for me and an insulated coffee mug for him. 
But the surprises weren't over!  Santa left the girls one more treat in the kitchen: a big
girl mountain bike for Belle and a kitchen playset for busy bee Brees.  They must have
been REALLY good girls this year...
We spent the rest of the morning eating cinnamon rolls, playing with new toys, and cozying
up in the kitchen.  We had lunch with our big family courtesy of my aunt and then
played board games with the cousins all afternoon.  We made it home late Sunday
night, completely exhausted and ridiculously happy.  We made it through about 10
minutes of the Bears/Packers game before all falling asleep in the big bed.
It really was the most magical Christmas ever.
