Christmas Day!




















Ellie woke up on Christmas morning a little grumpy, as usual. Quickly, she remembered it was time for presents and perked up! She walked right past the princess tricycle that Santa brought her and didn't seem to notice!



After opening presents at home, we headed over to Berkeley where Tim and Jodi were hosting their first Christmas. They welcomed more than 20 people into their home for the big day! The day was filled with all the usual Carter/Jackson traditions - breakfast egg casserole, opening presents, football at the park, plenty of playtime for the kids and a nice dinner!

At one point, Ellie had received so many presents that she said she was done opening presents for now - even though she had more to open! I guess it's hard to "keep it simple" when we have so many people around to care about us! That's the joy of Christmas!!
