Christmas Day was busy. We started off with homemade sausage balls and apple strudals.
Then Rob and I looked in our stockings and the boys showed us what they had in their stockings, since that’s the one thing they can look at before Rob and I get up.
Then the obligatory pics in front of the Christmas tree.
Finally, what the kids had been waiting for since 6:30 am, the opening of the presents!

Great gift, lil’ bro!

Family got here and we enjoyed visiting. We ate a lovely meal of homemade pasta, sauce, meatballs, and bread. Then, the best part (especially for the kids) opening gifts from our family gift swap. Here’s my nephew who was super excited.
Everyone else waiting for their gift to be given.
