Christmas Morning

Christmas with little kids, is always magical. The excitement and anticipation is THICK in the air. We had church at 8:00am, so we knew the kids would have to wake up early and open gifts so we could still make it to church on time. Luckily (?) they woke up before the sun did and were ready to go. 

The presents all wrapped under the banana tree was the cutest thing ever. The kids all helped wrap presents this year, which was a first. Plus Santa left them some things on the couches. Paul took the camera for a while, so I got in some pictures this time. Everyone got things they asked for and some extras. We were all spoiled, even Kina, thank you to all the family and friends who sent us cards, pictures, and gifts this year.

The boys made us gifts in class that were darling, and so thoughtful.

Then off to church. On Christmas, there is only 1 hour of church.  But having that little refocus on being grateful for what we have, for our families, for our Savior, is just what we wanted.

I am so grateful for these sweet little things. They make our life so FULL.

Then we went back home to make cinnamon rolls. Paul had a helper this time around.

Christmas morning was so much fun. The kids played and played and played and were SO happy.  Then after a while we set off to the beach, because who doesn't like a good swim in the ocean on Christmas? Here's a video of Christmas morning.

Another awesome holiday at the Paul and Jessie Berg house. Great pictures and video, thanks for sharing. I love the banana Christmas tree - just perfect. :) I love when Christmas lands on Sunday. It really adds to the spirit of Christmas.
