Things have quieted down a lot this afternoon... quite a change of pace from the past few days, but we've had a lovely Christmas. Yesterday, I took the day off and spent most of the day cooking and preparing. We had lots to get ready and enjoyed some tasty treats yesterday evening. Lauren and Dara came over yesterday evening to get ready for Santa Claus and we baked cookies to leave for him. We enjoyed some time together, which unfortunately Josh couldn't join because he was working. :( We missed him very much! After the Wyatt family left, we scurried to bed to wait and see what Santa would bring. The next morning, we were not disappointed! A tool table to hammer and build things, some Hot Wheels and a Wubble Bubble ball (which is really weird, but really cool.) My mom and dad came down for the day and we exchanged presents and enjoyed some prime rib with tasty sides. It's been a great Christmas and we are truly blessed, although I am quite tired after everything. Dillon is trying to straighten up as I type this and Luke and I are watching Thomas the Train... First thing in the morning we'll be heading to the pediatrician's office as he's running a temperature of 101.7. A sad end to Christmas that our baby isn't feeling well, but hopefully we'll get patched up quick tomorrow and at least we have a long weekend to recuperate. Merry Christmas Everyone!
Happy Christmas Eve! Due to Luke's bedtime, we skipped out on a candlelight service at church, Hopefully, in the next few years we can continue one of my favorite traditions.
He already had a ton of toys!
They had so much fun together!
Presents!
Uncle Pick, get off the coffee table!
So Dara is using the big girl potty now... we turned around and Luke had his pants down sitting on the chair. :)

The two greatest loves of my life.
Sorry, I can't pick just one. He was really cute this morning. :)
Helping dad!
He loved these little construction toys. He literally jumped up and down and shouted for joy.
The aftermath!
And then Grandma and Grandpa arrived with MORE gifts! Yeah!
Luke's track that didn't work. :( Hello Target return line the day after Christmas. Ugh.
Horseradish sauce for the Prime Rib... yumo!
He loved the mashed potatoes!

I'm really proud of myself. My prime rib turned out amazing!
