Since we attended the late Christmas Eve service our Christmas morning had a late start due to everyone sleeping in.
As is their tradition they began with sister gifts.
Chocolates.
A much wished for puzzle.
A blank book made from a Ghirardeli dessert box.
Stockings were next, with Grace discovering a doll she saw at the Waldorf School holiday faire.
And Emma discovering she has one too!
Emma's "something you want gift" was a much wished for glow mold. She has wanted one for two or three years now and when we saw them at Michael's Dave and I knew that we had to make that dream a reality. Next up: finding her a vintage one.
Santa gifts.
Always something wooden, and always something of his choosing.
The Queen has arrived.
Love these sweet Santa gifts.
Opening her "something you need" gift.
A carrying strap for her skis and poles and dark chocolate mint Kit Kat's from the UK.
Opening her "something to wear" gift.
Pausing gift opening for first breakfast.
Homemade cinnamon rolls and egg nog from our favorite dairy farm, of course.
Opening her "something you want" gift.
More embroidery kits.
"Something to read".
Opening her "something to wear" gift.
A new robe.
And the final gift of the morning. Her "something to read" gift.
Wishing those celebrating today the happiest of Christmases! We hope all your wishes and dreams have come true, and that you are spending the day with those you hold most dear! From our family to yours, Merry Christmas! xo
Looks like a very lovely Christmas- I want a light up Santa like Emma! Must put that on my own wish list for next year!!
