Christmas Day

Christmas morning in front of the tree opening presents

 Cooper opening his High Tide Rescue Bots boat- it was the number 1 item on his list :) Thanks Pops and Grann

 Each of the Sparkles received a new phone from Daddy and Mama :) The Littles enjoy having their own device to take pictures, videos and play games. Lillian was thrilled with her phone in the pink case and eager to show everyone.

 Roar said the hot water bottle. Thanks Auntie Lisa

 And a monkey hot water bottle for Lillian

 The much requested Florida Gator sweat shirts for all of the Sparkles from Uncle Caleb and Aunt Susanne.

 Lillian's number 1 item on her Christmas list was her very own package of ice breaker mints. Here she is after opening them in her stocking :)

 And there is Cooper- back to his High Tide Boat. He is a very happy boy.

 Lillian loves her Doll and Me Dress sets and was quick to change herself and her doll to match.

 Each Christmas I make a special gift for the Grandparents and loved ones in the family. This year I chose to sew pillows of love connecting the Sparkles in Indiana to where their grandparents live. We may be separated by distance but not in our hearts.

 Enjoying playing with their gifts while Mama makes Christmas breakfast.

 Cinnamon Rolls and bacon- a very happy family :)

 All playing on their own phones. They are so cute playing their games and telling one another "Hey look at this"

 Off to Nana and Papa's to spend Christmas with them and Omi.
Sharing shrimp cocktail with Omi.

 Patiently waiting for lunch

 The perfect end to a lovely day. Curled up watching the last episode of Downton Abbey (season 6 Christmas episode). A lovely perk of working for a UK company- the ability to VPN and watching the show live on the day aired. A perfect blessing to end a perfect day.
