Another Christmas Come and Gone

Well we've had another great Christmas this year. Christmas Eve was spent cleaning and baking cookies and getting ready for the big guys arrival. We had a nice dinner together and all got in our jammies to hang out. Here are the boys new Christmas jammies this year.








Dad and the kids had a little dance party by the Christmas tree before bed time.




Once the kids were all hunkered down for the night, Santa came and left them some loot. Here is the twins pile. They got 2 cozy coupes (a fireman car and a police car), a fireman and policeman build a bears, a little people carnival and little people airplane.





And here's Caleb's pile. He got A huge Jumbo Jet plane, a toy guitar, an easy bake oven with a dino apron and chefs hat, a T rex mountain, some lincoln logs, a helicopter, a hockey outfit for lightening and a book with his Moose in it.




Zaric got Mom and Dad up at 5 am. We had to play with him for well over an hour and contain him in our room. Mom finally ended up waking up Zaden and Caleb around 6:30 to start the festivities since Zaric was getting pretty stir crazy. They loved their Santa gifts and Caleb was pretty excited about the tech decks and fishing snowman in his stocking.














He says his favorite 2 gifts are his new airplane and his guitar. He even had to bring his guitar to Price with him later that day. Here are him and Zaden making up a tune.



The boys ran straight for the cars when we got them downstairs and knew just what to do. They played and played with them for quite a while. It was pretty clear that Santa had brought them the perfect gifts.












I love this picture of Zaric helping Zaden with the car door.







After we played for an hour or more we finally went up to the tree and opened some gifts. The boys gave Dad some more Mario stuff.




Zaric and Zaden mostly cared about the ribbons. They opened only a few then headed back downstairs to play in the cars some more. We had to open their presents with them in shifts.




Then Mom cooked a big breakfast, complete with pancakes that had Christmas designs in them. Thanks to my friend Cinda for the fun pan.



After breakfast and the boys taking a nap, we left around noon for Price and Papa's house. The boys had more fun there. Singing songs and playing with gifts. Here's a picture of Zaden singing while Zaric fished with Uncle Dave's new ice fishing pole from Papa.


And Zaden singing with Uncle Dave.



Zaric had a ball with this box. Climbing in and out and threw a fit when Grandma got ready to take it outside to the trash, so of course he won and it stayed inside.


The best thing I could ever find in a box right here!



Mom and Dad were spoiled too. I got some books, some CD's, some jammies, a necklace a new Cowboys blanket, Christmas mula and lots of Christmas baking stuff. Dad got a new Wii game and some books, a new season of Futurama, some Christmas mula of his own. I know there are lots more wonderful gifts we got but can't name them all. So thanks everyone. We again love everything!
We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas as well.
