Christmas

The night before Christmas all was stirring in the Thomas house. Luke built and built and built until around 2 am. We tried to be very careful, because we had Miss Sleepwalker (KAR) walking almost all night. Kar eventually ended up catching us in the act. :( Crazy girl! It's kind of a long story so I won't get into it, but Luke and I were laughing soooooo hard. That girl is too smart for her own good. She has promised to keep it a secret from the boys. Anyhoo, with one secret out of the bag we (okay I) was still VERY excited for Christmas morning. Seriously, I swear I get more into it then the kids. I slept maybe 2 hours all night because I was just so excited. I really wonder if I''ll ever grow up. :)

Here's the kids reading the note Santa left them. Look at Kar keeping a straight face. I was very impressed with her secret keeping.

Santa's loot. Santa kind of went overboard this year, but it's all part of a playroom renovation. :)

The kids first look.

Kar and her doll house.
Spence with his tool set, that he has been talking about all month. The moment he saw it he said "See Mom I have been a good boy!".

Noah with his and Spence's new train set. Notice the drool of chocolate coming from his mouth? Luke gave him a morning M&M to wake him up. :) One of the many reason's why he's such a Daddy's boy.

Kar working her new robe. She's a nut!

Noah braking in Kar's new doll house.

Spence hard at work.

It was a lovely morning and we all crashed pretty hard at nap time. Opening presents can just take it right out of ya, and so can an eventful Christmas Eve. :)

We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas.

Wow the little ones got some good presents this year!! I'm jealous. LOL jk. Jenn you are hilarious. I can't wait until Preston gets old enough where we stay up through the night playing Santa Claus too. Kar was sooo good for not being too distraught over learning "the news" and keeping it from her brothers. We missed you guys at Yellowstone. :)

So cute Jenn! I can't wait til Dade is old enough to really understand Santa Claus. Kar is such a good big sister. Dade had the same pj's as Noah!
