Christmas Day

We'll the big day had finally arrived. After leaving out the milk and cookies for Santa, the kids were soon in bed. Kellen, was the first one up, charging into mom and dad's bedroom exclaiming, "Santa's been here!". Reilly was up a few minutes later after all of the commotion. It didn't take long for both kids to tear through all of Santa's gifts. Reilly was still pretty sick at this point and at the height of his irritability. It was decided to keep the kids home from Aunt Geneva's in hope that Reilly would feel better after his nap. That afternoon, it was finally decided that Shannon was going to travel to her mom's with Reilly and Kellen and I were going to go to grandma and grandpa Flaum's Christmas party.

It wasn't the same being at G+Gpa Flaum's house without Shannon and Reilly, however it was still good to see everyone. As usual, there were lots of presents to open and we enjoyed a terrific Christmas dinner. Shelly, Scott and I enjoyed being entertained by Kellen, Cate and Baylie serving us "appetizers".
