{Christmas Morning :: First Christmas on Our Own}

Merry Christmas!!!
Ryker was sweet enough to wake up {who knows when...} and open his and Grayson's stockings and eat half the candy and only open one actual present before I woke up. Hey I am not complaining it could have been MUCH worse and I enjoyed the extra sleep. He was VERY excited to show me everything Santa had brought him already.



 The smallest, simplest present Gray got was his favorite. He carried this around most of the day. 
 It took us about 2 hours to open presents because we would open one and then play with it for a while and then keep opening. It was nice to drag it out long. It made it more enjoyable.





 T-Rex was loads of fun. Ryker just ran and ran and ran with him all morning. 

Our Christmas was nice and relaxing we just played with presents, Skyped family, ate snack food all day, played some more with new toys and didn't worry about cooking or cleaning up the mess of it all and just enjoyed my sweet family. It was as perfect as one could expect. But will for sure missed being with our families and all of the fun of a BIG family Christmas. We even tried to get Ryker to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus but he did NOT like that idea since Jesus was NOT here {in our house}. We will keep working with him on that one. I am so grateful for the gift of our Savior Jesus Christ being born and all that he has done and still does for my family. Life may be challenging but we are still VERY blessed!
