Christmas Morning Part 1

Since us girls (Jessi Evie & I) stayed up way too late with Jess being the 1st to crash and Ev being the last, Christmas morning came a little too early with Josh Hector & Jon being loud starting a little after 6. I got up a little after seven and went in to take pictures of them all still in bed. Around eight they finally got permission to start waking people up so Jon put on a Christmas CD and blasted it as loud as it would go! The boys then (using the wrapping paper rolls I had finished the night before) proceeded to knock on the bedroom doors and wake all the sleeping ladies up. Starting with the Exchange Students and ending with Jessi & Evie. Jess as usual was not so excited to be woken up but she took it like a champ with no yelling (even though the boys were quite loud!) and very little complaining besides asking if she could get back in bed till the Earlys came. The Earlys ended up coming later after doing Christmas at home first so we sang Christmas songs that proclaimed the birth of Christ and then started with the Advent and Reading of the Christmas story. Followed by singing O Come all Ye Faithful. What a blessing to begin the day worshiping together! We then exchanged presents and rounds of hugs. The tradition at the Delgado home is every gift is delivered with a hug. So by the time you are done with all 15 of us... you have had at LEAST 30 hugs!!!
Well here are the pics... I will continue my trek through Christmas with the next post. I hope everyone is enjoying my ramblings!
