The rule was not to stir until 7:00 am, but somehow, by 6:15 am we were all downstairs already opening presents under the tree. The boys were just too excited. Santa was really good to them. Both received the Legos sets they wanted, and H even got a cell phone which was #1 on his list. I can't believe it. Later in the afternoon, all of our family came over for Christmas dinner. Grandma, Aunt Pam, Uncle Matt, M & I, Nina, Papa, Aunt Christie, Uncle Tim, J & M, Justin, Amy, A, T & E. It was a full house, and really nice. Brian planned the dinner this year, making a bison roast, creamy leeks, potatoes dauphinoise and baby kale salad. He topped it off by making a delicious buche noël and I made a lemon mascarpone crepe cake. We went to sleep happy and full. Perfect.
