Our Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year! We had a Massey family party a couple of days before Christmas and we went to my Grandparents on Christmas Eve. We also saw Santa at our ward Christmas party. Makade was nervous about sitting on his lap, but did it anyway so he could make sure Santa knew what he wanted (which changed every day). Charlie wanted nothing to do with Santa. I wasn't that surprised, I don't think a lot of one year olds love him. (at least mine haven't) But I was surprised at just how much he didn't like him. He wouldn't even touch the little bag of treats he got. He just threw it even though it has candy in it!! Bryan and I stayed up way too late on Christmas eve being "Santa's little helpers" not realizing how long it was going to take to put together all the "fun" things the kids got. We decided next year we are definitely going to downsize the loot. As excited as Makade was to wake up the next morning I thought for sure we would be waking up early but he didn't wake up until about 7 of so. The kids were so excited to see what Santa had brought them, until I told Charlie that Santa had brought all of these things trying to get him to see that Santa wasn't so bad after all. After that he wasn't so excited and he didn't touch his stuff much. I think it made him mad! It was a little funny. But they definitely got spoiled between Santa and two sets of Grandparents they ended up with way to much. I'm just glad they had fun. The best part of the day for me though was just relaxing with Bryan. We haven't had a day where we didn't have to do anything or go anywhere in such a long time that I don't even remember the last time we did that. It was a great day.
