Christmas Day

Christmas Eve we went to church and spent the night at Manya & Papa's house. Papa read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and the boys set out the cookies, carrots and milk for Santa and his reindeer. We missed Uncle Phil & Auntie Alicia and baby Keely, but Uncle Andy was super fun and we were glad he spent the night with us! After the boys were in bed, we played Trivial Pursuit and as boring as I thought the game would be, it was actually hilarious. I dont know why I kept getting all the damn Presidential questions - I'm clueless in History.
Christmas morning we all opened presents. Lake was such a helper handing out gifts - since he can read now, he was into checking out the tags on all the gifts and reading who they were for. He completely took over Papa's job of passing out the gifts.
Santa brought the boys almost everything they asked for...except for Turbo Man. After watching Jingle All The Way, Lake & West have wanted a Turbo Man doll more than anything. How do you explain to a 3 and 5 yr old that there really is no Turbo Man?? Lake insisted the elves would make a Turbo Man doll for him.
I think Sean's favorite gift was the child-size neck ties his mother got him. If only you could have seen one on him. :) And my favorite gift of all would be the twinkling sparkling diamonds in my ears! i have to say i have the most wonderful husband!!!

Merry Christmas!
