Christmas Day




I could not sleep so at 5am I got out of bed and headed downstairs. Thank goodness TBS was showing 24 hours of a Christmas Story cause otherwise the only thing on was infomercials. Kato was up next at 7ish followed by Jade at 7:30. I had to wake up Alex, who sprang out of bed with a huge gasping "Santa come, Presents?" We yelled down to wake up Michael and the festivities began. The kids opened stockings, we ate cinnamon rolls, drank coffee, and opened the gifts under the tree. We left everything out and prepared for our travel to Green Bay. We left earlier then planned, about 10:00am. We got up there, had some lunch, went to the hotel, swam, and headed to the Grandparents house about 3:30. We visited, ate dinner, opened some gifts, and Jade got sick. Jade and I headed back to the hotel where she got worse. Kato, Michael, and Alex played the traditional ping pong challenge, and Kato won again! Jade woke up about 1am and didn't go back to sleep. Since it was only one night I didn't pack any tylenol and of course the front desk only had adult kind, so I headed out about 4am to find some. Lucky for me Kwik Trip is open 24 hours a day everyday. It was 4:30am by the time she got some meds and she was finally able to sleep. We got up around 7:30 had some free breakfast and the boys went swimming. We left about 10am, got home, unpacked, cleaned up all the gifts, and started breaking down christmas decorations. By Sunday the house showed no signs of Christmas and we watched the Packers beat down the Seattle Seahawks. It was a great weekend all in all and the kids were happy with their gifts. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas as well. thanks for reading xoxo
