Christmas Day

Christmas morning we woke up and let the kids have their Santa gifts.  After a delicious breakfast, we hung out until Matt and Sarah joined us.  After the traditional Dutch meal of husput, we opened presents.  It takes awhile as we go around one at a time (youngest to oldest) but it's so fun seeing and enjoying what everyone got.  We let the kids go first and then Sophie wanted to help everyone open their gifts.  Jackson went to bed about halfway through (:  It was a wonderful Christmas and in a little over a week we're off to Kansas to celebrate Christmas with my family!
