"Best Christmas Ever" was the phrase that was repeated throughout the day... So ya us parents won!
We do our Christmas with my side of the family the weekend before Christmas, so most of our presents were given then. They do christmas big and that makes it hard to keep expectations low for my wife's side. We have to remind the kids to be gracious and thankful. They generally do a good job of doing that, but sometimes kids will be kids.
