We woke up this morning around 8:15 am (our usual time) and found that Santa had visited our house last night!
I think Olivia would have been content with just the items in her stocking. She was in no rush to open presents. In fact, it took us 3 hours to get all of them open.
She opened each one and wanted to play with it. So, it was a very laid back, enjoyable morning in our house as we casually opened and enjoyed each present.
And, we had to stop for a chocolate milk break.
By the end of the morning, however, even the cats were exhausted.
And so was one certain little girl. She laid down for about 2 minutes and then she was ready to play again. LOL.
One of her favorites was the art easel that she got. She has already made some great masterpieces.
Around 1 pm, we headed over to my parents for a turkey dinner.
Here is Olivia enjoying her present from her Great Great Aunt Mary.

I wish I could say the rest of the day went great, but this afternoon we got a call that my grandpa was being taken to the hospital. His blood sugar was high, his blood pressure was low and he had a 104 temp. He is currently resting in the hospital with possible dehydration and an infection. Please say a little prayer for him. . .that’s just not a call that you want to receive any day. . .especially on Christmas.
But, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
