Well, Christmas came again this year...much too quickly for the adults and much too slow for the kids. On Christmas Eve, the Stratton's ate dinner at our house (Blake made the turkey!). Then we braved the snow and drove to Susan's parents to open presents. The kids were so excited to see their cousin Abby and get to play with her. They wanted to open their Christmas jammies first so they could wear them while they opened their other presents. Afterwards, we packed up our loot and went home. In the morning the kids got up late and we only had time to look at what Santa brought us, then we had to hurry over to Blake's parents house for breakfast. We hung out there until after Christmas dinner then headed home to finish our Christmas. Ainsley got her monkey slippers she had longed for and Ty got a whole mess of animals that he asked Santa for. Ty wasn't feeling very good and fell asleep halfway through opening presents and Ainsley wanted to head out right away to ride her new bike. All in all it was a satisfying holiday. Blake even took the day after Christmas off to hang out.
