Mom and Dad always make them wait for us to be up with the camera ready before they can go down.
Santa did come! The kids all got a scooter, the older three got motor scooters and then Vivie got a three wheel scooter just her size.

Possibly my favorite part of all of Christmas morning is when the kids give a gift to each other. They each get $5 from Mom and Dad to spend on the sibling they drew. I took one picture of each sibling giving their gift and then hugging the kid who gave it. I think this really teaches them how good it feels to give not just receive. Plus the pictures are so touching!
Rachel gave to Carter.
Dayton have to Rachel, notice what one of the gifts he chose was. Ha!
Carter have to Vivian!
Vivian gave to Dayton!
After our own family Christmas morning we went to Grandma Days. Nate and Alex's baby Lucy was a hit with everyone. She is just one month old! Vivian was especially enamored by her!
Merry Christmas! We are so blessed to have wonderful family to celebrate with.
