The long awaited day had finally come. Lauren in her Hollister onsie and Jace with his shark infested pajama pants made their way downstairs scanning the goods under the tree as they went. In a rather civilized manner, gifts were opened and squealed at. Lauren unwrapped some clothes, Nike Free Runs, Pink jacket, backpack and phone case, some other odds and ends and a pair of Beats headphones. Jace made out with Hollister clothes, a pair of Vans, Ripstick G, books, and a pair of Beats headphones. My little pile of goodies consisted of accessories for the Mini, sports bra, and a Morrissey book and video. The morning had started out great, so far Christmas was running smoothly. Now we had to get dressed and visit our family....
First we made a stop to see Minty, Sam, and Abby. Grandma & Grandpa Robb were also there- two birds with one stone Chrismas bonus! We exchanged gifts and checked out the goods Santa had left Sam and Abby. Then it was off to the next stop.....
Grandma & Grandpa Nelson's.
If there was something Santa forgot- don't worry grandma remembered!! Lauren got her One Direction fix with the movie, CD, and perfume. Jace reeled it in with some Hollister shirts, body spray, and phone case, Nike Elite socks, and an Air Hogs hovercraft. Jason and I got some goods too, the best of which was cold hard cash! After all the cousins and everyone finished opening gifts it was time to fill up our bellies with some lunch. After much debate it was decided that China-a-Go-Go would be our fill up station again this year. The food and the company was great!! After lunch we made our way back home to enjoy our new gifts. Lauren immediately commandeered the downstairs tv to watch her 1D movie. G & G Nelson stopped by later that night to see what the kids had earned from Santa, then they joined us for a special Christmas dinner at the Aliante food court.

Once again Christmas had been good to us. Spending time with friends and family, traditions with the kids, and just enjoying that overall good feeling the Christmas season brings.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
