Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was wonderful this year!  Izzie started the day about 7:20 as she bursts into the room exclaiming, "Mom, I got to tear off the wast wink (last link!)  We did a Christmas chain counting down to Jesus' birthday, and she knew that today was the day!  I got Liza and Greg up, and we went into the dining room with the presents.  Izzie immediately identified the bicycle and assumed it was hers.  Upon further inspection of the name tag, she said, "Liza, You got a new bicycle!"  The girls opened their 3 gifts each and couldn't have been more excited.  Then, Izzie tore off the last link, and we all went into the kitchen to finish decorating Jesus' birthday cake.  Next we held a birthday party in honor of Jesus and ate our chocolate cake for breakfast!  The girls played with their toys until Grammy, Papaw,and Aunt Mer arrived.  We had a wonderful lunch and a great visit then a well-deserved nap!
