The boys were so excited that Christmas was finally here! We started Christmas eve with a yummy brunch that Michael prepared for his family at our house. During the middle of brunch Peyton started screaming and said "I need go doctor" and was pulling on his ear. He had an ear infection a couple weeks ago that didn't clear up. I was glad we were able to get him into the doctor before Christmas.
After the doctor we headed to the children's mass. The kids had a tough time sitting still and it was tough to hear since we were sitting in the chapel off of the main part of the church, but it was a beautiful mass with all of the precious children singing.
After mass we headed to my parent's house for Christmas eve dinner

After dinner it was time for presents. Patrick was SO excited! Can you tell how excited he was about his marble run from Aunt Denton?
Peyton was thrilled about his Dinosaur. Three days later and he has still not let go of his dinosaur. He sleeps with it and carries it around with him. So funny!
And then back home for a long night for Santa and his elves. Luckily Santa had a lot of help this year.
Sweet little Conor's presents

Joint gift for the boys
And Peyton's side
And the grand finale! Hard to see, but here is the biggest Santa gift.
We finished around 1 am, which was much better than in previous years! Can't imagine how late we would have been up without all of our families help!
