Mommy snuck downstairs after Santa came, now remember we had gifts for 5 adults and 3 children. See those three big ones those were mine!!! A toaster oven from Grandma, Chest waiters from Grandpa and a nice big pottery barn jewerly box from Aunt Ali!!! Thanks Santa!

Ho Ho Ho!

The kids had a great Christmas, they got really great toys (and not too many) they loved all their gifts and they are still playing with them ahhhhh its been a nice few days around here lately! Okay well Christsmas will be a few posts so Carl can see it all. I have been emailing him pictures here and there on the iphone which is very nice but here is the detail by detail picture by picture hahah. Thanks so much to everyone for all the gifts, my children are so fortunate to have so many loving thoughtful relatives.

 

 

 Caitlin couldn't wait to open this present from Aunt Roberta. It was the biggest one under the tree and it had her name on it! She never gets that lucky! Oh the excitement!

 Owen found one just his size from Grumppa. Nathan got a really cool magic set from Grumppa and we have been having magic shows around here but I can't find the pictures. My guess is its on Ali's camera, we have the same camera and at Christmas time we just grab a camera .

 Finally we get to open the gifts from Aunt Roberta!

 Owen had to check out the wrapping first.

 OHHHH A BOAT HOW Exciting, how did you know! This kids is so boat crazy!
