Preparing for the holiday is always fun but it always amazes me how fast it comes and goes though. Santa treated the kids great this year. We all went out for dinner on Christmas Eve and when we got home the kids opened their stocking stuffers and George read "The Night Before Christmas" to them (a tradition we started years ago when Georgie was little). Christmas morning, around 6:30 a.m., Jake went downstairs to take a peak and see if Santa did in fact come to our house. He became about jumped out of his pants when he turned on the light switch and the musical lights started to play. In a panic he ran to shut the music off - it was hysterical because he had no idea I was standing at the top of the steps watching him. I was like "busted" Jacob! I had to literally wake the princess (that would be Gracie) up because she did not want to be bothered until I said the word "presents" and she jumped up with a quickness. Georgie managed to crawl out of bed and join us for the opening of the gifts. He was very helpful with Jacob and Gracies toys and putting stuff together. The day after Christmas Adam, Missy, Annie and James came down from Cresson to visit us for the weekend. The kids all had a blast. It's not too often that they get to see each other so when they do it is always a good time - I know Jacob and Gracie did not want them to leave. I attached a photo of the cousins (starting from the left: Annie, James, Georgie, Gracie & Jacob).
