Christmas fun

It is hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone. We are enjoying the last few days of break after a busy few days. We got the girls a few presents so Christmas Eve morning they opened them up. I think I say it every year but I really do love to see Jennifer's excitement as she opens things up. I do fear that someday she will lose her excitement for even the simplest of gifts but for now we will enjoy it and hope that Mikayla will share in the excitement too, this year she just wanted to eat the paper.

Getting ready to open presents with two cute girls! The first presents! Jennifer can't wait and Mikayla doesn't really know what to do.
We got the girls matching jammies and of course we had to stop to put them on. There was too much excitement to get a good picture.
Each of the girls got new books. Jennifer loves these books right now so she was very excited to get new ones!

Mikayla just really wanted to eat the wrapping paper this year. She loved unwrapping the presents but really could care less what was inside them. Although we don't like to encourage Mikayla to eat paper it was pretty cute.
Bill handed this present to Jennifer and she looked and him and said, "It's a football!" She was right! Bill gave Jen a football last year too but some how we managed to misplace it so we are trying again. Jennifer was very excited to get a new one.
A new movie how exciting! One of her favorites, the look on her face may not seem like she is excited but she really is.
The movie was the last present to be opened because we knew as soon as Jennifer opened it the next words out of her mouth would be, "I want to watch it!". We were right! So after opening a few presents the girls are relaxing watching a new movie. (Mikayla only watched for about two minutes because she was off to something else.)
