LeRouax Family Christmas

Christmas Day!!! Yay!!! Derrek and I were so excited to be celebrating Samantha's first and Mason's third christmas. So excited that WE were up before both kids. haha :) So in our hurry to intercept Mason upstairs and get a picture of him coming out of his room in the morning I completely forgot to take a picture of the tree with all the presents under it :( Bummer huh? I am so sad about it too b/c all the presents were wrapped in matching "santa" paper and I had made the cutest name tags for each child. Oh well, maybe you will get a view in some of the pictures that I post. Anywho, Derrek and I are up and sitting at the top of the stairs waiting for Mason to wake up and we hear him getting up in his bed and then we hear him say "oh santa!" Melt my heart!! It was so adorable. Then he comes tearing out of his room which looked like this


I have to admit I am so proud of this picture. I mean how cute is that? So we sit there and talk to him for a bit about how Santa came to see him and left him some goodies and we make our way down the stairs which looked like this


You may be asking what are they doing? This is daddy and Mason coming down the stairs choo choo style. haha. So as he gets downstairs and comes around the corner he goes straight to the toy that is 1. Put together already and 2. he asked Santa for, his TRAIN TABLE!!


He kept repeating "a choo choo train, a choo choo train." He then figured out that there were more presents under the tree for him and decided it would be fun to open all of those ones too.

In this picture you can see the wrapping paper and the cute name tags :)


The second gift he got to was the actual train set

Ofcourse this one had to be completely opened...

and set up for him to start playing.

He then continued on through the rest of his presents and had a blast!! Samantha slept through Mason's whole Christmas which turned out to be a good thing. We were able to fully concentrate on Mason and his gift opening. A little bit later after Samantha woke up she got her own christmas too.

Big brother watching Samantha open her presents


Decided she was being slow and took matters into his own hands :)

After all gifts were opened and breakfast was eaten Mamie came over to spend some time with the kids. She was a great help with Samantha who she managed to put into a milk coma.

The rest of the day was spent in pj's watching all our new movies. We had an amazing day and hope you did too.

I love the picture of Mason running out of his room!! So cute!!

And I could definitely see the wrapping paper and nametags in that picture - they look great! I might just have to steal this idea! : )
