Christmas Morning ... Dec. 25, 2008

The girls woke up around 7:30, so not too early. We had to hold them off for a few minutes while we got the video camera all set up and then we let them come down. I think we have posted every year that they got way too much stuff, and this year was no different. Santa brough Katie a new bicycle (now that she can ride on her own) and Ashley an easy bake oven. We didn't realize that for the oven you needed a 100W incandescent light bulb and one specified to the United States. You would think it would be simple since my company MAKES light bulbs, but it is still complicated. I am having the factory make a few special bulbs for us, so that will help.
Ryan got a few presents but, as any baby, was more fascinated with the paper and boxes. Not sure why we didn't just wrap up some empty boxes.
After we opened presents we had our traditional breakfast of Eggs Benedict and Caramel Pecan Rolls. We thought about going to a movie in the afternoon but decided to just enjoy the day in our pajamas.
The girls watched their American Girl Doll Movie they got, "Kit Kittredge" twice, which still baffles me that they can watch those over and over again. As expected, it was a fabulous day.
