Christmas fun

This year we had a very fun Christmas (but Christmas with kids is always really fun!!).  Olivia was really into the Santa thing this year and Callen is just starting to get it but since Lou was excited, he was too.  We counted down to Christmas, read Christmas books, did Christmas crafts, put on nativity scenes, and sang carols to get ready for the big day.  We did our usual Christmas Eve of pizza and watching Joy to the World. Then it was off to bed for some excited kiddos.

Christmas morning came and the kids opened their Santa presents.

Callen's big toys were a little car, a basketball hoop, and a tractor.  

Olivia got a kid tablet (a Kurio), a princess art set, and Jake and the Neverland Pirate toys.

 
 

Carson got a little Little People zoo toy, and a couple of baby toys.  




After Santa presents, we had some yummy breakfast and then onto family presents under the tree.  Olivia was pretty excited about the princess carriage the boys got her and Callen loved his little motorcycles Olivia and Carson got him.  Carson just loved all the excitement and paper everywhere.





After, we headed over to Grandma and Papa's for even MORE presents and the kids got a big surprise...





Grandma and Papa got them each a hot wheels.  Yes, super spoiled.  They are not the best drivers but they LOVE them!!! 


Casey's parents and sister were able to come up for a couple of hours on Christmas day too, which made everyone really happy.  The kids were able to see and play with both sets of Grandparent sand had fun all day.  Another good Christmas for the Payne family!!!
