Our Christmas tradition is to celebrate Christmas Eve with our extended family. My aunts, uncles, and cousins all come over and we stay up until midnight. This year my Grandma, Mamita, was here with us! We love when she is here. Isn't she sweet?
Our midnight tradition comes from Guatemala, where my mom is from. They stay up until midnight there and then light fireworks outside. When they go back inside, Santa has visited and they open presents and eat tamales. This picture is Mamita, Jordan, and my mom Skyping with my uncle and his family in Guatemala. How fun is that!?
Jordan loved all of his presents...and he got a lot of them. He even liked his new Spiderman undies that were in his stocking!
Santa also brought this mini-sandbox with all sorts of construction tools and gadgets to play with. (This was a cool toy until we got it home and more and more sand is finding it's way onto the floor...although it does remind me of being on the beach...no, sand is bad!)
Jordan getting ready to open more presents. I love his Christmas jammies.
Danny just loved being around everyone and loves this seat toy my parents have. Here he is looking into a mirror. I love how enthralled he is. Jordan helped Danny open his presents. He's such a great brother! Of course, Danny love to watch everything his big brother does.
Jordan squeezing out from under the Christmas tree. He was a great help passing out presents. This year, I printed out pictures of everyone and taped them onto presents so he could hand them out himself. It worked great and he was proud of himself.
Every year since Jordan's first Christmas we get new pajamas on Christmas Eve so we can sleep and wake up in our Christmas jammies. The boys had matching jammies this year...with skulls on them! That's how it is with boys, never dreamed skull Santas would exist, but yes, they do, even for babies!

And that was our Christmas! I hope everyone had a nice holiday, whatever you celebrate!
