Christmas mornign was great! The anticipation for the kids however war horrific for Kev and I. After going to bed around 1:30am (you know making sure things were just right for Santa when he got here) we were not so pleasantly woken up by Tyson wide eyes and bushy tailed at 2:15am wondering if we could now see if Santa came and if we could open presents. SERIOUSLY! I could have lived with that. What i couldn't live with was ever 45 min to an hour until 6:15 am all my children at least once..(some more) came in wondering the same question. With an occasional bathroom use. When 6:15 rolled around Kev and I thought we should now get up since it was not going to get any easier to send them back to bed at this time so we went out to see what Santa had brought.
Hadlie got a Karaoke machine, Tyson got Cabelas dangerous hunts 2011, Davis got a scooter, Cole got a DS, and Rhett got a scooter too. They all got some other fun stuff and once again our Carter Christmas was a success :)
Later that morning Grandma and Grandpa Carter came down to give there gifts, to visit, and see what the kids got. Grandma got HAd more Knitting stuff so she can now become a pro :) and helped her start on her first scarf. I will be excited to see the finished product!
Later on that evening Granny and Poppy came over to have dinner with us. They ended up staying quite awhile visiting playing the Wii and watching home videos. We all had a great time and before we new it it was 10'o clock and thanks to mom and her Excedrin i was feeling good but we had some tired kids! THANK HEAVENS!The day was perfect and i could not have asked for a better Christmas day!
Oh my gosh, that's too funny about the kids waking up so often. When I was growing up, I knew I would be in BIG trouble if I came out of my room before someone came in to tell me it was time to go out and open presents. Tell Hadlie that I would like a scarf too! ;) I want to learn how to knit or crochet someday.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, you should throw them away - that's TERRIBLE! Oh well, I guess it's just one crap night of sleep, right?
