Santa came early

Yesterday was the day we celebrated Christmas at Jeff's parents' house with his immediate family. To prepare, Aubrey and I decorated some cookies to look like Santa, Rudolph and even Mrs. Claus. The cookies turned out cute and Aubrey had fun eating, I mean, decorating them. :)

Once we finished the cookies, it was off to Grandma and Grandpa's house. The kids had no idea what was in store for them. Grandma loves to shop and Christmas is her favorite holiday. So, as I put it, Santa comes twice every year! :) Luckily, even though Aubrey saw all of the presents, she was still oblivious and just as happy to be playing with Grandma's toys. However, once it was time to hand out presents, Aubrey's excitement level rose instantly, She couldn't contain it and started opening her presents before Grandpa could distribute all of them. Unfortunately, she was done opening her presents once she got to the Little Mermaid music box...definitely a hit! The kids got a lot of new toys, clothes, you name it. Once we got it all home, Aubrey didn't even know what to play with first. Tyler, of course, just wanted to play with/destroy whatever Aubrey was using at the time. Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa Sandberg for all of your generosity. We had a blast and are very grateful for you and all that you do!
