Sew Fun Saturday: Christmas Morning

Thank you letter from Santa.

The goodies.

"Wake up, Lilly!"

"Wake up, Daddy!"

In our house, Santa doesn't wrap his presents.

Iris' favorite toy.

All Lilly asked for this year was these "xia xia" hermit crabs.

Daddy surprised me with a hand made Scrabble-like wall art board. He cut,  painted, & finished every tile, taped off the tiny squares on the board, and used magnetic paint to hold all the pieces together.  Can you believe it?
 
Our last Christmas as a family of four!

This was the best Christmas yet! I woke up at 5:45 to get everything ready, and Iris didn't wake up until 8am! What are the chances? The girls were just perfect. They were excited about everything, very grateful, and were not jealous of what each other received. Little problems I had anticipated never occurred. We opened presents, ate traditional coffee cake, painted, colored, and played all morning. It was lovely!
One more post, and I'll be done with Christmas. I promise.
