Christmas Day 2013

We started out our Christmas morning by opening up presents from Santa and then our gifts to each other.  That was followed by a wonderful Christmas breakfast in the restaurant off the lobby...which overlooks beautiful Lake Michigan that was trimmed with snow!

Jacob opening his Santa present.

The Santa paper is nearly off....

Not quite sure what it is yet...

It's a magic set!

Oooh, look Mom!

Santa brought a smile to Jacob's face with this one!
