Christmas Morn

Before we get to the big event-- I had to show you this picture of Reese. She's been telling me lately she wants to be a reindeer when she grows up. So when she came home from preschool with this hat (it says Santa has 9 reindeer now)-- notice the antlers, they're hard to see-- I decided she is well on her way! Holland woke us up at 2:30 a.m.-- 2:24 to be exact. It's burned in my lack of sleep memory. I told her no way-- go back to bed. Thankfully, she did. And Christmas morning didn't come for us until 7:30. Very, very do-able. Here we are at the top of the stairs waiting for the big go from Dad.

Grammy and Grandpa and our dear friends, Mike and Shannon Angus (Mike looks suspiciously like Santa, by the way)... came over and were waiting downstairs. So down the hall we go to the....
chaos and mayhem. Santa somehow did find our house.
The best gifts are always the homemade ones (usually). This year, Holland and Greer both made us calendars at school. Pretty fancy.
Holland's big gift from us-- was moving out of the bedroom she shares with her sister (here's the big farewell) to her own room-- what was our guest room.
Reese then moved into Greer's old bed. Greer took Holland's bed. And Kean got Reese's room. We also moved the playroom upstairs to what was the sitting room outside of the master bedroom. Confused? Me too! We're almost done with the big move. I'll post pictures soon. Meanwhile, here's Reese in her old room-- doing what she does about 12 times a day-- change her clothes!
