One of the most glorious messes in the world is the mess created in the living room on Christmas day. Don't clean it up too quickly. ~Andy Rooney

CHRISTMAS1

Christmas morning was wonderful just as always, Ryley woke up first (somewhere between the 4-5 am range lol) then after going thru his stocking and other “Santa” stuff went back to sleep, bailey was the next one up she hurried and ran out (her finding out about Santa this year tugged at my heart a little bit, but it was time I guess, pretty sure she had her doubt’s being as smart as she is, bless her) anyways… she was up at about 7, then I had to go wake Peyton up…
