OUR Christmas Eve... Part 1

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
 Ours was nice and full of LOTS of toys for the boys!!
We "do" gifts with our children on Christmas Eve morning and then go to my mom's for dinner on CE. On Christmas day we go to my MIL's for gifts and "lunch" then to see my FIL after, BUSY!



Here is the note that my oldest son, Gavin left for Santa...


He taped a piece of candy cane on the back for Santa too ♥


Cookies we left out for Santa...


The stocking were hung on the doorknobs with care...


In hopes that St. Nick soon would be there!
(I got these stockings from Cracker Barrel this year and they hold a 4x6 photo in each one, which I kept forgetting to put one in!! Thank goodness Santa knew whose room belonged to who!! )


The children were snuggled in their beds...


As visions of sugarplums danced in their heads!!
(This lil one cracks me up in this pic, he is SO passed out!!)


Some gifts under my "man-handled" tree!


Santa must have gotten confused this year...
He thought that "naught" lil boys get lots of gifts apparently! lol:)




One for Gage...


One for Hubby...


One for Gavin...
Where's one for mommy?
My Santa delivers waaaaay after I go to bed!
(My hubby got me a $50 gift card to Old Navy this year!! We were just going to get each other a new pair of slippers this year but he couldn't find any in my size that he liked so he though a gift card to my fave store would suffice ♥)


Here is hubby with the Horse slippers I got him...
I added this note to the top of the box...


If you don't remember, on our honeymoon we attempted to go horse back riding together...
but I was scared to death of the horse!! LOL I thought these slippers would humor him every time he put them on!!


I also have him a photo frame with one of our wedding pics in it ♥


Also got him a ND fleece from the boys!
...........................................................
Our lil monkeys sure got spoiled...


Lil Gage showing off his funny duck card we gave him...


Yum... candy from his stocking...


On your mark... get set... open gifts!!


Couple of his own Lego sets so he leaves his big brothers Lego's alone!


Big set of Lego's from Santa!
Don't you love his chocolate moustache?
Only on Christmas can you have a piece of candy before breakfast ;)


Here is the #1 gift of the year!
The Wonder Pets flyboat that my mom bought but....
we had to have him open it at our house because he knew Santa was gonna bring it to his house!


He was THRILLED!!


He was telling me to STOP taking pictures!


He also got  the Lego School Bus he wanted...


New Playdoh set...


Handy Manny Hot Wheels playset...


Excitement over the big box...
an airport playset.
He also got  the Yo Gabba Gabba boombox, that I don't have a pic of for some reason?


And his 1st Radio Flyer Scooter!


And... he's off!!
With mis-matched pj's on cause he had a pee-pee accident!! lol

Stay tuned for Part 2 of the Krawiec Christmas Eve post...
where Big Bro opens gifts!!

Gotta run and make dinner!!!

Awe...very cute!Think we all felt kinda numb this Christmas. But know what? I'm not gonna give into sadness, none of those who are no longer with us would want us to feel this way! My Mother and Father loved Christmas very much. I can't ever remember one where there wasn't joy in the house. Now after Christmas Poppy would be mad cause Nanny would clog the drain in the kitchen with sausage grease!!! Love,Mom

So cute!

I'm pretty sure your youngest and my youngest could be best friends. I saw him sleeping on a Thomas the Train pillow and my son does too. AND They were wearing the same pajamas on Christmas LOL!
