When everyone wakes up in the morning, the kids watch Frosty upstairs while we take showers and get ready for the day (very quickly!). Then we take a picture on the stairs, and then turn the oven on to heat the sticky buns and then we read Luke 2. Then we take turns opening presents:) Gramma and Papa come over at 11am and we have our ham and au gratin potato dinner and then open gifts (or vice versa) then we sing Happy Birthday to Jesus and eat the angel food cake that mom makes. This year mom and dad made a trip to the emergency room after leaving our house because my mom's blood pressure was WAY too high. Everything turned out fine (no line to wait in at the ER on Christmas day!). Then Nana and Grandpa and Becky were supposed to come over at 5pm but instead, David and Danielle came too, from Pittsburgh, and surprised us!! NICE SURPRISE!! We had our white elephant exchange and had appetizers and played games. It was a great family day!
