And I'm not kidding.
You wouldn't believe how many times I heard that today. From all 4 of the kids.
The thing is this Christmas was so simple. We spent a minimal amount of money on presents. We didn't have a big dinner. Or do huge amounts of baking and decorating. Just simple
We celebrated early too, which was kinda fun.
Our morning went as usual. Kids up early, back to bed, back up, back to bed and finally it had to happen - I had to get out of bed. Thing is I was up at 5:30 and did eventually fall back asleep for a brief second. Ok I might have been a little excited about one of the presents the kids were getting….
Yep everyone was jolly and happy, thankful and grateful.
Kamo's first present was a set of cars and quite seriously he didn't need anything else after that.
And then for the piece de resistance.
(Which funnily enough after being up awake about it I almost forgot about it in the big hype of opening presents.)
I made the kids a little slideshow and showed them these.
Yep, a puppy. They all finally got their wish.
It all happened in such an interesting way this week and here we are.
I still haven't quite got my head around this but wow were they excited. So fun.
These are pictures of the litter and the bottom one is the mom and pups.
We will have pick 2 or 3.
They are Louisiana Catahoula with 1/4 Mastiff.
Born yesterday.
After the great excitement we enjoyed some delicious cinnamon buns, eggs benedict, and fruit
We then headed out into the beautiful sunshine and laced up and went skating.
It was so fun. Such a warm day. Skating in our pj's. Does it get much better than that?
Then the rest of our day was full more food- basically non stop until bedtime- a quick nap for me, hockey, Sorry, some magic tricks by Ret, hot tubbing, more playing and all falling exhausted into bed.
I'm exhausted too. Think it's time for bed.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Have a blessed holiday with all of you loved ones.
