Christmas Day

Ready to check out Santa's gifts.

Racing to Christmas stash.

Maggie got her Baby Alive. Santa has to return the blond Baby Alive, bc she wanted brown Baby Alive (announced 1 week before Christmas).

Houdini decides to put handcuffs on his sister's ankles, because her hands slip out.

John at an entire canniser of pretzels and finished his new book in about an hour.

David checked out things on the microscope the boys received from Santa.

Mary Beth got some artwork she spied on the web page of the Attic Gallery. (She also received two additional pieces, not pictured here.)

David completed his 200+ piece Lego set in about 30 minutes.

Maggie warmed to her unicorn scooter once she got batteries in it and it sounded like a horse running as she scooted.

John programmed his first video game tonight. First of many, we hope...

And the Mandalorian made a late-night appearance.

Mary Claire learned a new skill, but she doesn't want us to tell anyone because she wants to surprise her Big Daddy tomorrow. So...stay tuned.

This is T-E-N!

David is not a fan of early mornings,

but he loves his new R2-D2 robot from Uncle Daniel's family!

A day that began with a donut and saw cupcakes at lunch needed a healthier close, David thought. His siblings (and Mama) ate brownies, and David opted for an apple with a candle.

Most everybody listens to Daddy when he tells of David's first night when he kept us up all hours.

Thanks, Aunt Sarah, Uncle Brian, and DJ! We love disaster coloring books.

Aunt Jessica, Uncle Marvin, Larkin, and Logan gifted a book that he read at the table.

Mama couldn't resist the hat. D loves The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Ten. How did it happen so fast?
