Christmas Eve and sooo much fun!!

On Christmas eve we went to an awesome church service, and then had family over for pizza and to open gifts. We were grateful that our family came to us, since we knew it would be an early morning. This is my favorite picture taken of the boys. They were so excited!
Can you tell??

Calum was right into opening gifts this year, and didn't want any help (as usual). He had the greatest expressions as he "oo-ed" and "ahhhhh-ed" once he saw what was in each package. Here he is cooking for Elmo. He is really into pretend play, and loved his play food, shopping cart, and pots and pans. Maybe someday he'll help Mommy cook. One can only hope!

My best attempt of a family pic.

My niece Hannah looking oh so awesome with her new pink hair.


My nephew Joey and Calum's new Elmo.


A close up of Calum! Love his smile, and his drool!!!


Grandma got a new camera, and is even learning how to upload and attach photos to an e mail.
Evan opening presents. He was so excited all day, and all the days leading up to Christmas. I love seeing his enthusiasm, excitement, and he was really thankful for what he received.


One of Evan's favorite gifts. A new tractor!!!


Here the boys are reviewing the contents of the snacks they left for Santa and his reindeer, and deciding which ones they would like before heading off to bed.
Christmas morning. After close examination of the cookie plate, crumbs were found. Calum ate them (surprise), and Evan wanted to know why Santa left crumbs instead of eating them. He was probably in a hurry was my response.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas. We feel blessed beyond measure to have such wonderful family and friends. We missed you Grammie and Papa Tony and hope you had a great Christmas and a Happy Birthday to Grammie!!!
