Seriously...we had a wonderful Christmas weekend. Kenneth's parents, brother, and nephew came down Saturday and spent the night. We just had a bunch of finger food, appetizer type stuff to eat. I had to work in the nursery, but Jordan stayed at home with everyone. We got Nathan up at midnight after Santa had made his rounds and found his way down our chimney! I went to bed around 1 and they were all still up. That didn't keep Nathan from getting up at 8:30 raring to go! He did tear himself away from his Power Rangers long enough to let me take some great pictures of him and Jordan in their PJs.
Jordan and I went to church, but only for a little while as there were no babies in our room! I imagine they were all at home playing with new goodies! My Mom and Carroll came over after church, too, and Jordan started opening presents. She was so funny to watch! As expected, she was more interested in the paper than in the gifts themselves, but that was just fine. She did help tear some of the paper, though. After Mom left, it was time for a little nap--and do I mean little! She slept for 30 minutes! She took a 30 minute nap when we went to church, too.
It was time to eat around 3:30ish. My Dad and Grammy, my brother and Heather arrived just in time to join us! Kenneth's Mom made pernil (wonderful roasted ham) and Kenneth made rice and beans. We also had sweet potato crunch and mac and cheese. Everything was delicious.
Then it was time to open more presents from Dad/Pop and company. Jordan really made out pretty well. She got toys, clothes and stuffed animals. Anyway, we all had lots of fun and it was so entertaining to watch Jordan with all her presents and paper and all. I am also really happy that everyone was able to make it to our house to help us celebrate--it really made for a very Merry Christmas!!
