Christmas Day

Who doesn't love Christmas morning?! It is so much more fun for me since we've had kids... the excitement is literally tangible. Our usual Christmas morning routine starts out when Davis comes in to wake us up, and we open stockings on the bed. Then we go downstairs to see what Santa brought. Davis was so cute opening his presents this year! He was so excited about everything. Lila wasn't quite as pumped, but she'll get into it next year.
After we open presents, we get ready to head back over to Brandon and Mary's for Christmas brunch. I am usually in charge of most of this, and I have to say, it's pretty yummy. We rotate the food each year, but the staple is Jane's apple pancakes (german style baked in the oven). This year we also had Ryan's homemade buttermilk pancakes and syrup, as well as cinnamon rolls, bacon, quiches, and fruit. Sooooo good!
We spent most of the day at their house so the kids could play and the adults could talk and hang out.
Around dinner time, we head over to Bry's parents' house for Christmas dinner and presents with the family. Always very yummy and very fun. By the end of the day, we are completely stuffed and completely spoiled. Can't complain about that!
