We had a great Christmas! My kids actually slept in until a little after 8. I was the first one up, which was really nice. I got everything ready and had candles lit and the tree on when they came downstairs. We had our traditional pancake/sausage breakfast made by my hubby. I can't remember how that tradition started, but it's a good one. ☺ He always makes some baby pancakes too, which the kids love. We spent the rest of the day opening gifts (3 for each + stockings) and playing with toys and games in our pajamas. So nice!
I got the CD I was wanting, which I love. She has such an amazing voice!
Also, my aunt gave me this vintage tree that I have been wanting forever. I always told her that I wanted hers someday, and she found one for me. It's one of those weird, kind of tacky things, but I love it...probably because my grandma and my aunt have had one for as long as I can remember.
I also got a new hall light. Funny how things like that are exciting, huh?! The other one was really bad though.
Now the tree is down and we're ready to celebrate a New Year!
Do you have a favorite tradition? What was your favorite gift this year?

Merry Christmas to you, too, Wendy! I LOVE the little ceramic tree!! My Nanny used to have one when I was little and we always loved rearranging the light bulbs. What a thoughtful gift!
My favorite gift was a couple of books my sweetie saw me tag on pinterest and tracked down ... without my help or suggestion. ;-) sweet.
I will miss reading your blog, but hope to keep up with you on facebook. I need to spend less time on the computer, too. Don't we all... ? God bless!
