Sometimes things don't work out like you think . . . and this year, that is exactly how our Christmas turned out. Todd woke up Christmas morning with the 24-hour stomach flu and spent the day either in bed or puking over the toilet. Hmmmm, a little less merry than anticipated! I was really sad, what can I say? And it really threw me for a loop. Because of that, this is the only picture I took the entire day:
The next day . . . I came down with it. Laid around moaning and puking just like Todd.
So yesterday, Todd and I finally had time to look around at what we got, and figure out what to do with all the things the kids had got and scattered around while we were out of commission! A little order has now been restored!
I wish I had taken more pictures. Like one of the kids in their Christmas Sunday clothes . . . or at least ONE of opening presents. But, the kids did have a wonderful day, how could they not?! And Madeline proclaimed at the end of the day how she just LOVED everything she got. LOVED EVERYTHING. Ethan agreed.
My favorite part of the day was hearing Silent Night played on the violin at church. That made my Christmas.

Shoot! I'm sorry he was sick! Miyah woke up at 6am throwing up too. Though luckily she only threw up one more time and she was really happy all day Christmas even though she didn't eat much. So sounds like you had it worse. :(
Glad you got at least one picture, right?
That's not the best way to have Christmas! Glad you're all recovered now.
Ugh- yes that would totally throw me too if that happened. So sorry so not fun or fair.
Well hope you are enjoying everything now at least.
