As the kids get older, Christmas gets more and more exciting. Santa also has to work a lot harder to keep from being seen! Every year we have the kids sleep in our room (only the ones not in a crib). Basically we want to make sure the kids don’t go down stairs without us. This year since our bed is on the floor and we don’t have the kid’s sleeping bags, we put all the beds in our room. We had wall to wall mattresses and by morning they were in our bed anyway.
Christmas morning we all came downstairs to see what Santa brought and opened presents from Grandparents. By the time we were done, I was exhausted. Brandon let me take a nap but I unfortunately woke up with a head cold. Luckily, it only lasted a couple of days.
The day after Christmas I still wasn’t feeling well and didn’t want to get anyone at church sick. But, I still desperately wanted to get out of the house. We decided to load the kids in the car and drive to the Temple. It was so fun to see how excited the kids were about being at the Temple. In Maryland we would see Temple a lot and I’m glad they know there is one here too. The drive is really pretty and we did a big loop. We stopped at North Shore on the way home and watched the crazy surfers, and believe me they are crazy!
