Every year on Christmas Eve I take a picture of each of my kids by our Christmas tree. It is neat to look back at all the pictures over the years and see how much they have grown. I also take one of all the kids together and then we take a family picture as well.
Every Christmas Eve we let our children open 2 gifts. One is always a new pair of pajamas and the other is whichever gift they choose. My older kids have now caught on to the fact they are getting pajamas and look forward to them each year. Here is Baby J opening his new pjs.
Another tradition of ours is to make hot chocolate, wear our jammies (at least the kids) and drive around town and look at Christmas lights! So fun! Here is the kids in our van. My dad also came, that is why baby J is in the back seat.
Had to share a messy living room photo! Good ol' Christmas!
All he cared about was his bottle!
E's new light up toy
My husband's brother and his wife gave the kids a Wii. They were SO excited! I am excited that we can now get Netflix! Woo-Hoo!That was our Christmas! Other than this we lounged around the house, watched movies, played with our kids and their new toys and were just plain lazy. It was wonderful.

The kids all look so cute in their pj's. :) Looks like it was a great Christmas.
Love all the pictures! Tate got a Mr. Potatohead policeman too. We used to go look at Christmas lights as a family when I was growing up. Now, my parents take the grandkids around town and then they have hot chocolate after. I love family traditions! :o)
Well, it would appear you had a very Merry Christmas! All the photos were terrific, thanks for sharing.
Wonderful photos! Looks like everyone had an amazing Christmas.
