Christmas 2011: Maya's 1st Christmas.


 Morgan started the day off by marching down stairs opening the last door on our advent tree and then declaring that all the doors are open so it must be Christmas.  Then poor Morgan had to hold it together as we made her wait till not only after church, but then after Maya's nap and Brunch to open presents.  With all the Christmas traditions, stockings, food, presents,etc... it was really neat having Christmas on a Sunday.  I enjoyed being reminded of the reason for the day with more than just a read through the story.  It is easy to get caught up in mix of things, so taking the morning to stop and worship was a great way to start off the celebration of Jesus Birth.

We enjoyed the girls excitement throughout the day. When Morgan was finally allowed to get to the presents she was bursting with excitement.  We could hardly hold her back as she ripped open the gifts and jumped and down over their contents.  Maya enjoyed eat wrapping paper, played with boxes and enjoyed her presents when Morgan wasn't steeling them.
