We had one hang up, as we put together Noelle's vanity table from Santa together and realized the all important large mirror was missing from the box. A quick letter from St. Nick was written with a story concocted that the mirror broke when unloading it from the sleigh. A replacement would be sent in the next weeks.
The tree was filled to the brim with presents. Christmas morning brought gigantic smiles to the children's faces. Their excitement was intoxicating.
Wrapping paper flew everywhere as the children dug in and the adults sipped coffee and shook the grogginess of sleep from their heads. We all loved watching the rugrats excitedly open and enjoy their gifts.
The camera was put down the rest of the day unfortunately, so pictures are minimal. We indulged in cookies, food, and family. The children loved all their gifts and had a fantastic time with everyone. We hope they come back next year!

I'm so happy you were able to have your family all over for Christmas. What a joyous way to celebrate. Next year have Tom's family too and it can be a true "Griswold Family Christmas!" Santa had an oversight at our house too. He realized while setting up Mia's ironing board, that an iron was not included. A simple statement to Olivia that she didn't ask for the iron sufficed, and that Mommy would buy her one.
