a very merry Christmas

In spite of staying up until ten or eleven the night before, Everett and Simon were up at six on Christmas morning. There is nothing quite like the thrill of seeing whether Santa actually made it to our house to get our kids out of bed.

They were both so excited to give the presents they had picked out for the rest of us and to open their presents.

After the gifting, we spent the whole day lounging around the house, playing with presents, doing puzzles, and most importantly, playing Mario Kart on the Wii. I don't really love video games, but Mario Kart is fun!

We hope you all had as wonderful a Christmas as we did - Merry Christmas everyone!
