We had a fun christmas day. Matt woke up first at 6:20. He tried to wake Gavin up but he wasn't interested. Matt then told him, "lets go look at the presents". Gavin shot out of bed and ran to the living room. They got into their stockings. Their noise woke Adam up. So, we all got up and started opening presents around 6:30. After opening their gifts, the boys were so interested in playing with them, they didn't want to stop to eat. Eventually I made some muffins, put them on the table, and told the boys they could get one when they felt like eating. They may have eaten one muffin each but nothing else 'til dinner, when we made them stop playing.
This is the living room before the chaos began.
Gavin received Toby, a Thomas train from his grandparents.
This was the big present from Santa. Look at all their faces. It was an xbox 360 with kinect sensor and games.
Adam's face says it all. He is in love. He has been wanting an xbox for years. He also received the minecraft xbox game.
Gavin was excited to get his very own marshmellow gun. He always uses Matt's.
Santa brought a new bike to Matt.
Gavin got a couple of new train sets. In Gavin's heaven there will be trains and train sets.
We got each of the boys a Kindle Fire. They were all excited. Here they are checking them out. Amazon has a neat service that only costs a few dollars a month. It allows the available content--books, apps, games, videos to be based on their age range. With that minimal fee, they get hundreds of books, apps, videos, etc. Without this service I could easily pay that same amount for one game or one book. An extra bonus is that now Robert and I can have our tablets back.
