The kids think they heard Santa on the roof and Santa eating cookies, but they were too scared to investigate. At about 6:45, they jumped in our bed to tell us all about it and couldn't wait to run downstairs. They made a quick stop to Gigi's room to make sure she was awake and then they headed down with lightning speed. 
Taylor spotted her stocking along with Wii Outdoor Challenge and pink soccer sock and shin guards. Allison jumped right on her new mountain bike and then siffed through her stocking. They spent some time scratching off all of their lottery tickets(we had a few winners) and sorting through the goodies. After a break for banana bread and coffee, the present opening was underway. I loved all of my new clothes and the soccer bag and accessories Matt got me as I prepare to coach this spring. It was a creative idea. Matt loved his new tennis racket, Snow Summit gift card, Vans and many other thoughtful gifts. Taylor jumped for joy when she opened her very own pink digital camera and Allison spent most of the day watching movies on her very own portable DVD player. They also loved the tennis ornament and golfer ornament from Gigi and the many other gifts under the tree from friends and family. 
The rain came down all day, so it was the perfect lazy indoor day. Matt prepped the turkey, Geri and I prepared the sides and we had several hours to relax watching Karate Kid, taking naps, calling out of town family and friends and doing Sudoku.

Dinner was delicious and the clean up was quick, so we opened up a new card game called Blink and played until bedtime. It was a very blessed day!
