lessons....

this being the first year that K really knew what was going on, we really went all out to make Christmas morning magical. oh, boy did we learn some good lessons!

  1. never, under any circumstances, will i by dollar spot wrapping paper, EVER AGAIN.
  2. buy batteries BEFORE Christmas morning,DUH???(yes, we where the idiots at walgreens on thursday morning buying a gazillion dollars worth of batteries)
  3. manufactures packaging, well....SUCKS.
  4. one child will only like what the other child is opening at the moment, and fighting will ensue.
  5. 'indestructible' toys will break.
  6. the gifts you think they will love the most, won't be.
  7. relax, nothing will work out like you had in your mind, it will be better:)

we had such a great day! Santa left behind a huge mess, foot prints all over the house and crumbs from the cookies everywhere. he stuffed the stockings and left great gifts for the kids. i made lunch for my parents, then visited with Scott's family. it was a tad overwhelming for the kids and they got grumpy by nights end, but all in all it was amazing! i hope everyone's Christmas was the same. Now, for new years........
