Christmas Day

On Christmas Day we were actually able to sleep in pretty late (likely due to someones inability to fall asleep quickly the night before) so everyone was waiting and very excited when we finally made it upstairs.



The best was right after Corbin woke up Caleb asked him what day it was and he looked all confused and said, "Saturday?"

"First of all... good guess, but no. Second of all, I meant what special day is it?"

"I don't know...?"

"Who came last night Corbin?"

"Oh, its Christmas!" he says as a slight grin breaks out across his face. What a fun kid.


We had a wonderful morning together opening presents. Corbin's big gift this year was a bike from Santa, which he wasn't as excited about as one would hope, but I think he will love it this summer once he gets a chance to use it.



Makelle was clueless the whole time, but despite her serious lack of understanding, seemed to love Christmas morning. First of all she just seems to always light up and sport a huge smile whenever we are all together. Second of all there was stuff everywhere to look at, poke at, and attempt to eat. She eventually secured herself a permanent spot on Daddy's lap. Corbin was really good at helping Makelle open her presents, I LOVE that they are all ready good little buddies.


By the time everyone got through the mountain of presents under the tree it was nearly lunch time and we all got to sit down to a delicious turkey dinner with the whole family, before people started to head home.



With all the other cousins gone Corbin was left alone the remainder of the day playing with all of his new toys, which kept him entertained enough for us to play a couple games and assemble the 'bad guys' puzzle that Corbin picked out for Caleb's Christmas present. Such a fun day full of great memories.
