Santa came to our house! (Well my mom's house)

We had a great Christmas! It was so much fun to watch the boys, especially Kael. He is just the right age to get excited about everything and make things that much more fun. Aidan is starting to be that way too, so we had a lot of fun with them. We stayed at my mom's house on Christmas Eve, so Santa came to find us there. I am pretty sure he left his whole sleigh in my parents living room. Everyone got a ton of fun stuff. I have to apologize now, but the next four blogs have TONS of pictures, but I couldn't pick which ones to post, so....what can you do? Here are a few pictures from Christmas morning. Joseph is not in any of them because he wouldn't let me post any of him. He was just like a little kid and he doesn't want anyone to see how exctied he was. Santa brought him a Wii and it was SO fun to see his reaction! My whole family was also there, but they asked to not have pictures of them posted so early in the morning either! We still get so excited that we all get up at 6:00 am to open presents. It's a fun time, but it makes for some interesting pictures! Here are a few of the kids though....



Aidan with Buzz Lightyear! He was so excited about it. Kael says he screamed like a little girl when he saw it.
Kael and some of his Cars from the Cars movie. This picture and the next one tell a little story. If you remember from reading my post about sitting on Santa's lap you will remember that Kael has wanted the blasted Tool Power Workshop since about October. He has talked about it constantly and was afraid that Santa wouldn't bring it since he forgot to tell him about it. Well, Santa did bring it, that Jolly Old Elf. It was all set up in my parents living room and we were just waiting for Kael's reaction. He came out and saw the cars first....so that is the above picture. All of the sudden he turned around and spotted the Tool Power Workshop. He ran over to it and yelled "WHAT THE HECK??!! IS THIS FOR ME??" We laughed so hard! The next picture is of him with his Tool Power Workshop.

Aidan and Transformer Mr. Potato Head

Me with my awesome present from Michelle and Dave. They made me this collage out of a ton of pictures of my kids. It is SO cute! Santa also brought me a way nice jewelry box and a new vacuum!
Owen trying out Aidan's new chair.

My Grandma (my dad's mom) is a really good quilter. She made Aidan this Buzz Lightyear quilt. He loved it. Here is a picture of him wrapped in it and watching Toy Story.
Kael in his new McQueen tent with his Cars quilt that my grandma made him last year.
Just loving the Buzz Lightyear quilt.

Hope you all had a great Christmas and that you enjoy all of the posts about our holidays!

Great pictures. But I really wanted to see pictures of Joseph being all excited to get a wii. We were at Jared's house in Georgia for two weeks for Christmas. It was so fun to see grandkids on Christmas morning. We just got back on New Year's Day. I need to come check out the new toys!
