We started a new tradition a few years ago at our house. Just the four of us sit down on Christmas Eve Morning and open the presents to each other. I think it is really fun for the kids to get to open a few gifts because they are so excited for Santa to come. This year was even more fun, because Harper had gifts for everyone as well. I took her one morning to Dollar Tree and let her pick out gifts for whoever she wanted to. She got the following:
Owen- light up clapper hand
Richard- orange exacto knife
Boppy- orange flashlight
Uncle Cole- orange FM radio with earphones
Aunt Melanie- cinnamon apple room spray
Grandma- ceramic bird
Each of the dogs and cat got a present as well. She was sooooo proud of everything she had picked out and was very excited for Daddy and Owen to open their gifts this morning. Richard had even taken Harper and Owen to pick out gifts for me. Harper got me a ring with a black jewel on it because I "always wear black to work." Owen ordered me a really neat phone case with the kids' picture on it.
Richard made Harper a really neat cork board to hang in her room. Owen got an awesome superhero cape from Mom and Dad...of course it was in the colors of a true superhero...orange, black and white! We had a great time being together...just the four of us!

Nothing says superhero like a cape, and sweat pants and.... boots?
Everytime I think about Harper buying those gifts it makes my heart smile.
