1st day of winter break and it started off with an early visit from Santa. Santa was super thoughtful this year and the kids had "the best Christmas ever!" The oldest, the one who struggles getting up for school everyday, woke up at 5am. Seriously? She said she was "so excited." Well, I made her go back to bed. We got up around 7:30 and headed downstairs. The kids were surprised with lots of goodies with some of the highlights being the Lego Diagon Alley from Harry Potter and a sapphire necklace from Grandma and Khunta. The oldest got a humongous stuffed wolf and the youngest got his laser that "reaches the stars" plus a visit from fairies who left him a house, winter decorations and fairy dust! He was super excited. I got the purse I've been eyeing and the hubby got his business sweat pants. I have to say they are pretty sweet. Later in the morning, we headed to Chicago and got there in record time (we were in Illinois in 3 hours) and jetted straight to Siam Noodle for the best Thai food. We then met up with family at the Christmas German Village, bought some glass ornaments, did some shopping and then headed to Greek Town for some yummy food at Pegasus.
