The holidays this year were great. We stayed at our house in lieu of traveling to avoid a repeat of last year.
Christmas morning was magical. Aubrey slept in, but Richard and I couldn't sleep past 5am or so. So we woke up and make Christmas breakfast. We had orange cranberry muffins, streussel coffee cake, red skin breakfast potatoes, bacon, and orange juice.
And it wouldn't be a social gathering at the Keddingtons without setting off the fire alarm. So we did. At 6:30am. And Aubrey slept through it. She is immune to its blaring, incessant beeping due to repeated and regular exposure, day and night.
When Aubrey awoke, we ate breakfast and ventured off in our sleigh (aka Civic) to pick up Grandma Trish. We wisked her back to our house and unwrapped our treasures brought from Santa.
Highlights include Aubrey's toy horse, my red purse, Richard's scarf, and Mom's 88% cocoa dark chocolate bar.
Then to the tree.
Highlights include Richard's mini-fridge, a Kinex set (for the adults), Mom's USB humidifier, and Aubrey's skateboard.
After the excitement died down, we all took naps. In fact, I took naps on two separate occasions during the day. What a great day it was.

I'm getting addicted to all the new cool Keddington posts! Love them! Awesome Christmas stuff, and glad it was magical at home. Ours was, likewise. What does your purse look like? Love ya!
of course, you can't mention the words "red" "purse" and leave the rest to imagination.
what of us out there does not envy a scarlet satchel?
Hey you, how is the quilt fabric? Post? hehe :)
Aubrey is so grown up! And your Christmas morning breakfast sounds DIVINE!
OMG. That skateboard. I want it. I need it. Soren's always telling me he wants to go skateboarding. I have no idea where he even heard about skateboarding, but he wants to go. I had no idea that made skateboards for little people.
