Our Christmas started on Christmas Eve with Scott reading the boys "The Night Before Christmas." They were so into it. All day long Gabriel kept saying, "I can't believe Santa comes tonight" and "I'm going to hear Santa's sleigh and wake Bennett so we can see him." It was pretty cute.
After the story and the boys were sent to bed, it was time to get to work assembling the goodies. I'm not sure why Scott and I wait until the night before to do all wrapping and assembling, but it only took an hour this year (record time).
We made the boys stay upstairs when they woke up. I did not want them rushing down and opening everything. And since Thomas woke up at 5:15 and the big boys at 5:30, it was a little easier to contain them.

We had a great Christmas with family and friends and even an 18 hour long fire in the fireplace. Oh and lets not forget, the white Christmas!
And that's a wrap on Christmas 2017.
