Christmas Eve day Connor and I shopped at Freddy's (it wasn't bad at all at 8am) then cooked and cooked and cooked:) We made a peppermint roll cake for dessert for Christmas, and ham, scalloped potatoes and brusselsprouts for our Christmas eve dinner with Sparkling kid wine:)
Christmas Eve we decided to open two of Connor's bigger gifts so we wouldn't have to take them over to Tracy and Ed's then bring them home... My Aunt and Uncle got him a basketball hoop!!! How much fun, now we have a basket of balls for him to shoot into the hoop he loves it!
Gary loved showing Connor how to rip off all the paper to open his gifts
Yay legos!!!! It was so cute Gary wanted to bild Connor a big castle and every time he would get one together Connor would come in and destroy it!!
Then we made cookies for santa.
It was so much fun playing Santa this year once Connor was in bed we got out his ball pit and blew it up (that was a task)... put some goodies in his stocking and went to sleep:)
Connor was so excited to see his ball pit in the morning he went straight to it! He loves making the balls go round and round
Here he is with his stocking (some forks, an elmo phone and a new toothbrush!)
Then we opened stocking before heading to the Pascos
My hubby said he wanted a card so I got him a cute one and wrote something nice to him:)Tracy took lots of pictures during the day so this is all I have for now.
Christmas is truely special to me because of all the time I get to spend with family. It was the first time in a long time Gary and I have had the day off together and I absoulutly love my inlaws (if I haven't said that enough already they are the best) so it's great to spend the day with them:)
They love to spoil Connor as much as we do. They got him a full size kitchen with all the bells and whistles, a piano to walk on that plays music, nice winter boots, shoes, a race car rocker, kitchen supplies, a knit scarf and hat and mittens... Needless to say Connor will be busy busy busy with all his toys:)
:D!!!!!
