Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year. We tried really hard to keep it simpler than in years past. We were successful but the kids still made out like bandits and we will still cut back next year. It was so nice to be able to stay at home and just enjoy the day.


When the kids got up we opened presents, then had breakfast. After breakfast we played with the new toys for awhile and then headed outside to play in the snow. Of course Princess and Duder wanted to go back in and play with their new things so Layton Dad, Lil' Miss, and I stayed outside. I shoveled snow while Layton Dad pulled Lil' Miss around in the sled. Of course he did help with the snow shoveling and actually did most of it.


We had a wonderful relaxing day talking with family on the phone and playing with the kids.

Yes, we were attempting a simpler Christmas this year, but my kids still got loads of stuff. Next year, next year.
