Christmas Day

 Christmas morning at home:

PJ pic on the stairs


Starting out with stockings


Oliver is curious about the presents


Silly kids


Sam loves his hot cocoa!





Ev using her stocking as a scarf

Mike cooked up some scrambled eggs for breakfast


Sam trying out his new mug



After breakfast, we opened the presents under the tree:
Ev played Santa and handed out the presents

Helping Dorie open one of her presents













No paparazzi!


Not sure what was going on here, lol




Sam got a hot sauce sampler


Dorie was very excited to get some more dental treats

Doing some tricks to get a treat

Sam and Ev had matching presents in these big boxes


They each got a Djungelskog - the stuffed bear from IKEA


I got a cute t-shirt with red heelers on it

The kids got some fruit rollups in their stockings, so Sam wanted to try out this hack he saw online - you put some ice cream in the fruit rollup and close it up into a ball, then eat it

Sorting the presents in the pet stocking - some of Dorie's presents had been under the tree, but she had a few in the stocking as well


Nora tried teaching Dorie how to unwrap

A new tube of doggy toothpaste...yay? hehe


Next up, the cats got to open their presents

They each got a "blind box" with a cat hat inside. Oliver's was from the flower collection




Oliver's favorite gift was this slithering snake toy


Max

Getting some new wand teasers!

Rockin' his Kirby hat

Juno



What a cute lil teddy bear

After the cats were secured in the bedroom, the rats got to come open their presents


Yummy dried strawberry treats


They also got a new hammock and some chew toys




We all had a fun afternoon of trying out new games, eating yummy treats, and taking naps
