Christmas Day 2012

Knowing me so well, and that I'd be rushing around at the last minute to get things prepared for our Christmas Day celebration, my parents came a little early to help out.  This meant the kids got to open a few presents before the chaos and fun of a large family arrived! Ry was excited that Glammie somehow remembered a shirt he had pointed out at Target a month or so ago to her.  
And Julia was happy to see a doll she had clipped for her Christmas list was in her pile! 
Krista and Brian arrive, and Ry is so excited to see them he abandons his pile of presents to go play with the boys.  
Let the fun of opening begin!
Dad and Diane and Larry Busch smartly stick it out in the kitchen while the craziness takes place in the living room!
Lucas is super excited about his spiderman pullout couch. He tells me he is just going to spend the night at my house. He's so darn cute, I nearly offer to take him in. =)
Somehow, this is the only pic we have of the living room during opening time. Let me just say, there wasn't a bare spot on the floor.  Talk about a kids dream!! 
We tried to get a family pic on the stairs.  Julia was having a hard time keeping her eyes open, and Emmy doll thought it was more exciting to look at her sister than the camera.

We played a game where Jeff put sentences or phrases Ry had written (think 2nd grade writing/spelling..it is a bit of a mystery!) and everyone had to try and guess what it said.  
Poor babycakes was a bit overwhelmed by all the action!
