Raising the Barrs: Christmas time is here!

Christmas morning came early for me, Nana, and G-pa (recently changed his name). But, for Reagan and Daddy...it came a little later in the morning. I woke up around 7:30 to finish making cinnamon rolls that I had started the night before. Nana woke up soon after to finish her breakfast casserole so it would be ready to eat when Reagan and Daddy woke up. Santa must have come during the night because there were all kinds of goodies under the Christmas tree when we woke up. It sure was hard not to peak! When Reagan woke up we all sat down for breakfast and drank our cup off coffee before the madness began! Reagan was eating way too slow for Aaron. He was definitely more anxious to open gifts than Reagan was. After all the breakfast was finished we let Reagan open her gifts from Santa. She got a wagon and puzzles and books and a new pair of shoes. She also had a stocking full of goodies like a new toothbrush and spoons and forks and new toy cars. Nana and G-pa got her some diapers and wipes (always a favorite of Mommy's) and some more books and a dog that sings and more forks and spoons! Of all the gifts...I think the forks and spoons were her favorite! She never put them down. After Reagan was done we all took turns opening gifts and stockings. Then the cinnamon rolls were ready. Reagan played and played and played until she couldn't stand it any longer. She took a nap while Nana and I got lunch ready and Daddy and G-pa went outside to set up the deer feeder. After lunch we finally got dressed and went outside to enjoy our white Christmas. Aaron and Reagan and her toast went for a ride on the four wheeler. The cold didn't seem to bother her one bit! She really seemed to like it. After some outside play we came back in for our dessert before Nana and G-pa had to go home. It was a really fun day full of excitement and great big smiles from our favorite little girl! What a very Merry Christmas!
