Jackson Family Holiday Lessons


What not to do the night before Christmas:

1. Let your kids stay up until 11:00 or you will have this Christmas morning:

2. Fail to force dinner down their throats, or you will have this conversation at 7:30 am:
Me: I think Santa came and brought you presents!!!
A very cranky Sydney: I want breakfast!
Me: HUH?!




What not to do on Christmas Day:

1. Accidentally put one of Nash's Santa gifts in Trace's pile...ooooops!

2. Allow Tyler to make commentary about girl-y presents



What to do on Christmas Day:
1. Open presents!



Hang out with family


Make the Mechling's traditional ambrosia



And, my personal favorite, try to get Nash to keep on his new beanie...very VERY entertaining!




Merry Christmas to all and to all a Goodnight!

This is so cute! I definitely wouldn't put it past Sydney to have more interest in breakfast than presents from Santa! And Tyler of course keeping things fun with his commentary.
