Belated Christmas

We typically exchange Christmas presents with Jenn and the kids during our New Years Eve celebration.  Unfortunately, this year Eden was sick on New Years Eve so we weren't able to get together.

Our belated celebration was the perfect excuse to leave one of our Christmas trees up for longer than I normally would have.  We finally celebrated on Saturday night and I now have a beautiful new piece of artwork in my entryway - check out the amazing sign Jenn created for me.  I always admire these but have never found the perfect one for our home.  I may have had a hint about it, so I got the canvases printed to hang next to it.  


A proven way to get the kids to all smile for a picture is to remind them that it's present time right after we get a good group shot.  They were all excited and ready to open presents, so this didn't take long at all!


And after they had lots of play time, we didn't protest when they wanted to watch something on the ipad and wind down before Jenn's family had to head home. Ahhh...quiet...but aren't they cute!
