Christmas Eve was Jasmine's birthday. We had birthday cake and present opening. She turned five years old. That night we roasted marshmallows and set out stocking and cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer. The kids left him a note.
Christmas morning left presents for the kids and filled nine stockings with fruit, nuts, candy and little surprises for everyone. He even answered Jasmine's questions in her Santa letter, and left a note for the boys. We had a very nice turkey dinner and overall a very nice day. We even stayed an extra couple of days to enjoy the peace and the great outdoors. Well, some enjoyed the outdoors more than other. I did a lot of staying inside with Nathan as it was freezing outside, but the others didn't seem to mind the cold. :)
These are the kids letters to Santa. These are special M&M chocolate chip cookies just for Santa and some carrots for his reindeer, who we learned were named just as the song goes. However, Donnor used to be called Donder. 
This is Jasmine opening her Christmas Eve present of pajamas. She is looking at her Little Miss Sunshine pajamas.
This is Alexander opening his stocking. He is looking at his Pez dispenser like deal that actually dispenses smarties. He was really excited about the chocolate inside that he found moments later. Really, he could have just gotten chocolate it would have been his perfect Christmas as far as presesnts were concerned.
Here is how Nathan spent his first present opening. Yep, that is him catching up on the sleep he didn't let me have the night before.
Here he is awake later in the afternoon having a lovely conversation with his Grammie. He threw in lots of very charming smiles.
