We celebrated Christmas with the McConnell family on Sunday at our house. It is kinda nice dragging Christmas out over several days because it just prolongs the holiday. There is so much anticipation for Christmas, you hate to have it over in one day. Lofton was also pleasantly surprised when he woke up Sunday morning and I told him that after church he would get to open more presents. Uncle Charles, Aunt Jennifer, Maggie, McKenna, and Aunt April came over around 1:00 for round one of gifts. Nana got Lofton a remote control helicopter that was a hit with everyone; Lofton barely got a chance to play with it, and she got him a Wii game and some binoculars. She got Landon a Cars tent, some monster trucks, and a truck set. The kids all had a good time playing with each others presents. Maggie loved playing trucks with Lofton; however, I don't think I ever saw the boys pick up a doll. Landon may have ridden McKenna's Tinkerbell bike, though.
Everyone else came over around 4:00 for dinner and round two of gifts. Grandfather got both boys remote control trucks. Both are different, but both remotes work both trucks, which is causing some confusion. They got a lot of other great gifts such as a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, a fishing Wii game with fishing rod remote, a turkey call, and some more binocluars- now there are two pair and there will be no fighting.
It was so fun to be with everyone. The kids all had a great time playing together. We really all should get together more often.
