Our Special Visitor and Christmas Morning

The Smuin kids got a special visitor Christmas Eve. Santa Clause decided to take a few minutes out of his travels to stop by and see if rooms were cleaned and if Matt, Dylan, and Kinley have been good this year. Matt and Dylan were up for pictures with the special visitor but Kinley was not too sure about him. He did a hug after he gave her a Candy cane. Thanks for making a special memory and coming all the way out here...you guys know who I am talking to.
Christmas morning was a great morning!! Chad's parents and brother came over to see the kids walk downstairs. We told the boys they could not get up until 6:30. That did not work too well. Dylan knocked on our door at 4:00. We told him to go back to bed until 6:30 when his grandparents would be here. Of course I could not go back to sleep so I tossed and turned until 5:30 or so. We had our alarms set, but before they could go off Chad's mom called to tell us they were here. We let them in and then woke up the kids. Santa spoiled the kids again. Matt got his bow and arrows, Dylan got his X-box, and Kinley got here doll and stroller. After the room was filled with shredded wrapping paper we cooked and ate breakfast. We had a great day visiting family and just enjoying the Christmas spirit.
