The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Well, Lofton, Levi, and Mimi Mimi got up bright and early to a white Christmas at 6:00 am, which is the time we told Lofton he could get up. (I wonder how long he sat in his room looking at the clock and waiting for it to say 6:00?!) Phillip, Pop Pop, and I crawled out of bed shortly after. Lofton patiently waited on Landon; we let him open a few of the gifts from Mimi and Pop Pop while he waited. Finally, at 7:30 I let him wake Landon up. I heard him go in their room and tell Landon that Santa had been here. They ran in and started opening right away. Santa brought lots of great stuff. Some of their favorites are Mario and Luigi remote control cars, a guitar, Mario vs. Donkey kong DS game, Bowser and Waluigi toys. Are you seeing a theme here? They got lots of Mario and Luigi stuff for Christmas including Mario blankets and Mario vs. Bowser DS game from Nana, and Mario sheets and snuggies from Mimi and Pop Pop. Oh, and I got some of my faves- a Michael Jackson ornament that plays "Don't Stop Till You Get Enough" and the Michael Jackson Wii game!

After the gift opening, we sat down to our traditional cinnammon roll and chocolate milk Christmas breakfast and then just relaxed and played with all of our loot. It was so nice just hanging out all together; I didn't even touch any of the mess! (In fact, we are still swimming in some of it)

At 3:30 we went to Aunt He He and Chad's for round 2. The boys had a blast playing with Hayden, Jared, and Abbey. It was nice spending time and sitting down to yet another great meal all together. The boys got more great stuff including coon skin hats, a hunting Wii game, Mario Smash Brothers, remote control truck, and Spy Gear. Christmas came and went so quickly this year and wore the boys out; they fell asleep on the way home.
