Twas the night before chirstmas and all through the house All the creatures were stiring...hopefully no mouse... Yep, we were up a little late that night, but early enough that Santa still made it after they went to bed. Andrew was worried about this as we watched the Norad santa tracker as to where Santa was.. He was afraid we would get home to late and since he wasn't asleep, santa would skip right over us. But we made it back just fine! We went over to Grandma and Grandpa Seegmillers Christmas eve, since we were invited and had dinner there. Kevin and Jo were down with Kevins kid's Brittany and Benjamin. It was nice to see them and visit. The Lukows were also there, so that made it an even bigger party. The kids got to open their one present on Christmas eve - as is tradition - a new pair of pajamas. I think everyone was pleased. 
Andrew opted to open his when we got home instead of at Grandma's - he was given the option. His were sonic pj's.

Okay, this year since Christmas fell on a Sunday and we have church at 9 am, we only let the kids open a few things from santa before we got ready and went to church. We only had to go for an hour though because they only had sacrament meeting. It was a very nice service. THe missionaires talked and did a great job!
After church, the kids came home, changed their clothes and dove back into their stockings and santa gifts. Hand sanitizer and ear muffs that were requested..
Eric saying...is that all mom?
Nope, theres a few more...
The testimony glove from Grandma and Grandpa Seegmiller. - she loves it.
Puzzles.
Puzzles and books for Andrew - I finally figured out...Andrew loves non- fiction...he'll read anything that way! okay, now I know what to buy you!
And Santa hid the last present behind the tree, saved for last.... A Wii! We had them all unwrap this one together...Andrew's words...I think he was a little speachless for a second, then..."this is the best christmas ever! I can't believe santa brought us a wii...I didn't think we'd ever get one of those!"
Can you feel the excitement?
Doing puzzles after all the present opening.. playing so nicely together.
Andrew and Rachel also playing so nicely together...on the wii! :)
It was a very nice Christmas day...About 5 p.m. we headed over to my mom's and then to Jeff's parents to visit. :)
