Christmas Morning

 This year was the first year that we have done Christmas Morning all on our own and I have to say that I really enjoyed it.  It was nice to be able to just focus on the kids and be on our own time frame.  We let the kids wake up on their own and these four couldn't wait to get down stairs. . .

 But this one wasn't so sure he really wanted to get up yet. . .

 I was even up and ready to go. . .

 We finally coerced Tanner out of bed and although he wasn't so happy about it. . .

 . . .it didn't take long for him to warm up to the idea that Santa had come.

 We normally let the youngest go down the stairs first, but they wouldn't go down on their own, so I helped them a little.

 And the others were right behind. . .

Hunter's favorite gift was his very own toothbrush.  You will have to trust me that it was a very big deal.

 And the following pictures are the kids with their "favorite" gifts, all coming from Grandma and Grandpa Bruschke. . .Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
