It's always a crazy fun time at the Barlow household on Christmas (emphasis on the crazy).

Here are the ingredients to a true Barlow Christmas:

30 dollar gifts for the Christmas Eve Exchange
1 visit from Santa


12 grandchildren dressed in matching pajamas

1 grandchild throwing up in the bathroom (not pictured)
3 dozen Cinnamon rolls for breakfast

4 hours of opening presents
1 beautifully decorated Christmas table


3 pairs of roller skates (must be worn inside by slightly uncoordinated children)

Put all ingredients under one roof and watch the energy and sound rise. Remove yourself from the chaos by taking a lap around the block or by sleeping in a tent in the backyard. Turn temperature up to 70 degrees and enjoy.

Merry Christmas!
