Christmas Morning started like your typical Christmas Day. Glenn and I woke before Emma, and even had time to shower. This is the advantage of staying up late with Family. Then Emma walked into the living room and saw...
this! All her presents from last night were lined up with her stocking and stuff. Emma was thrilled to open her stocking snuffers, and very curious as to what Mom and Dad got as well.
Emma playing with her presents as backdrop to the nativity. I just thought this was precious and had to take.
Emma is more excited then Glenn as to what he is opening.
Mommy gets some loves!
After we finished with the stockings, we moved into the Family Room where Santa had left Emma more gifts. We had a very princess themed Christmas this year. Here is Emma's new Little People Disney Princess Castle. She loves it.
Here is Daddy putting together Emma's Disney Princess Lego Castle. Emma loves her Lego's, and adding in princess just made it perfect.
Here is Emma with the finished product.
Later that day, Uncle Jeff arrived at our house to celebrate the holiday. After visiting and eating, we traveled to Grandma's place to open presents. We discovered (as we left) that the facility had a stomach bug going around, so we found Grandma in bed.
Uncle Jeff enjoyed his presents and the visit. After leaving Grandma's place, we took a break back at our house. Then that evening, we dropped Emma off at Grandma & Grandpa Cawood's house and went to the movies. The Case Family tradition was to watch a movie on Christmas. This year it was the Hobbit, so not good for a 3 year old. Great movie by the way!

2012 Santa Visit
This is our 4th year of taking Emma to visit Santa. Thus far, Emma has never enjoyed the experience, and her photos are not great. This year was success. She sat on his lap, spoke with him and smiled for the camera! YEAH!!!
We decided to make it extra special with her first trip to Build A Bear. I had thought a Christmas animal, but Emma had a different opinion. So, meet Rainbow Bear who is dressed as a Ballerina.
Glenn's favorite part of this day was as soon as we got home, Emma sat next to the piano to remove her shoes (which is what we all tend to do in this family) and proceeded to remove Rainbow Bear's dancing slippers. It truly was adorable.
