Full House on Christmas

Gauge woke up at 6:00am yesterday and I wanted to wait for my mom to get here at 7:00 so we played up stairs for a bit, jumped on Bradley to wake him up and then when my mom got here we got to open up our stockings and gifts. 

here is a short list of favorite gifts
-I got a JoTotes Camera bag from Jason and a new "hat" from Santa
-Jason got camo coveralls from me and a new wallet from Santa
-Bradley got a Super Mario brothers video game from Santa and Jason got him a REAL GUN! {AHHH!}
-Gauge got a 4-wheeler from Santa 
-Both of the boys got giant fish pillows from Santa














Now that I am married with kids Christmas is not what it used to be. I loved spending Christmas morning at my moms house with my sisters and brother but now it seems my house is the place to be! Everyone came over yesterday morning for a big breakfast and to do our gift exchange. We had scrambled eggs and hash brown casserole along with Mimosas! {yes we drink om Christmas morning... I'm not ashamed!} 


Now I have the tiniest house so fitting 10 adults and 5 kids in it is a little crazy but I love it.  


{honey baked ham!!}

I should have gotten a picture of the mess but the O.C.D. in me didn't let it hang out long enough. But here is Gauge after everyone left.


That was just some of Christmas. We are so thankful to have such an amazing family. I hope everyone else had a fabulous Christmas like we did. 

I would love for you to share with me what your favorite gift was.
