It's Christmas Eve and our shipment has arrived! The truck pulled up around 9:30 and was all unloaded by 12:30 by just 3 movers. The kids did awesome keeping themselves entertained and out of the way of the movers. Then the second the movers were gone, they started breaking out the toys.
Here's what all the boxes look like in out place.
Ryan and I immediately started unpacking boxes. Then around 3:30pm we headed for a quick bit at Chick-fil-a (kid requested) then to a see Frozen at the movie theater (can't beat a free ticket with each 2 cans of food). The kids did great for the movie. As we were walking into the theater they immediately requested popcorn. Kevin stayed entertained for all but the last 20 minutes or so when he decided going to the bathroom or just wandering around was more fun. There were only 4 other people in the theater room so not a huge deal.
When we got home we Ryan and I scrambled to unpack the living room and make it feel a little more livable. Then we had ham and cheese sliders for dinner, read the nativity out of the Bible Picture Stories book and the kids unwrapped some PJ's (Kherington's were too small so she opted to hold off and choose different ones later). I felt kind of like a speed version of Christmas Eve, but we did what we could. Oh yes, and Bastian our Christmas Elf finally found it's way to our place. Just in time to report back to Santa. That was close!
