December Daily 25 Thursday

"He came. Mommy, he came." Ryan said in reference to Santa.

The reindeer made a crash landing in our yard and plowed down our polar bear and penguin. But that didn't stop Santa from leaving a pile of gifts.

"How lucky!" I told Ryan. "I wasn't sure if Santa would put you on the nice list these past few days." I joked.

We had to wake Tyler up to open gifts. Any other morning Tyler is up promptly at 5:45 a.m. He must have been bushed from the evening prior.

We opened gifts. Ate breakfast. Played with toys. Got showered. Discovered that the driveway was pure ice. Jim scraped, salted, shoveled, and skid down the driveway face first before we headed for Homer to see grandparents. He said the fall really rang his bell. (Sorry sweetie.)

Another great holiday with family.
