Christmas Day

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Our morning ran like this... remember - Glennie is 16 now.. 16. Glennie got up at 1:15...opened his stocking stuffers and organized the presents then went into the basement and played Xbox. Glenn woke up at 2 ish... checked on the kids and found Glennie in the basement... kicked him off and made him go back to bed.. at which point then Glennie snuck out AGAIN went into the family room and read a book till he fell asleep on the couch. Nerd Bucket! Kaitlin got up at 5:30 and woke him up... at which point they tried to get us up. We managed to talk them into 6 and started our fun then. Here are some photos of our fun.

All the presents organized and into piles
Before we could start opening presents, Glenn read Luke Chapter 2.

A milestone here in the Ellis household. Glenn's 1st razor!! Say it ain't so!

Kaitlin's cute white/fur hooded puffy vest

Glennie got his digital camo pants!

Kaitlin and her cute fur lined boots

The aftermath

The rest of our day will be cleaning up and then we'll have a nice roast with gravy, twice baked potatoes, honey glazed carrots and rolls... with oreo pudding pie for dessert! Mmmmmm

LOL - SOOooooo many of you NEVER see this side of my family. Kaitlin and Glenn are the quiet reserved ones! I guess when they get into 'TRUE' form their 'real' personalities come out!! LOL

Trust me - You HAVE to watch the video!!

One thing that we TOTALLY missed getting on camera was Kaitlin found a whistle that Glenn wore around his neck. He then proceeded to blow in the whistle - however, the whistle got stuck in his goatee and just sat there... now THATS what I call a TRUE nerd!! LOL
