Christmas was so much fun. Emma Kate told everyone, "Merry Missmas" and Ryne enjoyed helping his grandmummer organize the "cresents" (he made Christmas presents one word) around the tree. We were visited by friends, bearing gifts and goodies on Christmas Eve. Later that evening we went to the Christmas Eve service at church. Mom, Emma Kate and I spent the latter half of the service out in the foyer/halls with all the other mommies and toddlers (having trouble sitting still). Alan, Ryne and I stayed up VERY LATE putting together a little kitchen for a sweet little sister, who squealed when she first saw it. Needless to say, Ryne didn't want to get up the next morning, but when he did he was super stoked to see Santa had brought him the school bus he had asked for. ALL. SEASON. LONG. We enjoyed a peaceful morning leisurely opening gifts, enjoying pancakes made by grandmummer and watching the snow flurries outside.
Ryne gets his first non-diet coke, from a super sweet neighbor... which he thoroughly enjoyed.
Hope yours was merry too. :)
