The kids had to line up from youngest to oldest to walk down the stairs and see what was left for them.
They oohed and ahhed then went to check out their stockings. McKinley read the note Santa wrote back to her. I made them sit for a photo before we started opening presents. We took turns opening gifts one at a time. We started with the gifts Santa left for them.
Josh woke up at about 7:00.
My Christmas baby!
So adorable in his cute little jammies.
We finished opening gifts around 8:30. I baked the cinnamon rolls I had prepared the night before. Super ooey-gooey! We spent the rest of the morning playing with toys and eating candy.
