This was the fist year that the boys did not get up before the sun to open presents. Actually, I was able to getup, shower, cook breakfast, and feed the dog before Mitchell and Grant got out of bed. I bet it was close to 9AM before they decided to join our fun!
The anticipation of Christmas morning!!!

Max loved wearing his fluffy bell studded collar and Santa Hat...not really, but he did love all of the treats and his new toy he found in his stocking!

As tradition has it, we always open our stockings first. They are usually stuffed with all of the things you love the most. So Grant's stocking was filled with Sour Punch Straws, Coke, and Nerds. Mitchell had gum and several bike tubes.

Grant requested another Nerf gun for Christmas. This one is different though because it works like a machine gun and can repeatedly pound you with bullets.

Brent was super excited to get this butt cover. Technically, this cover goes on his motorcycle so his butt doesn't sit on springs.

It was great to have Julie spend Christmas morning with us. Max really enjoyed sitting by her on the couch and watching her open her presents. She is so beautiful in the morning!

This is Mitchell's BIG gift. Yes, it is almost up to his waist. He had a hard time opening it though because every time he unwrapped the box and opened it, he found another wrapped box inside. He ended up opening 10 wrapped boxes until he found....

...this little gold box. When he unwrapped the final box, he found the IPOD he wanted inside. Lucky!

Grant is a little scary with this hatchet, watch out!

Brent got Grant this awesome LEGO set. It is not only LEGO's but it is also a programmable robot. As of this afternoon, Grant has programmed it to recognize different colors and read it out on a display screen. It seems to be pretty high tech!

As for me, I received a lovely new lightweight fashionable coat as well as the Perfect Brownie kit. As soon as all of the other holiday desserts are finally eaten, I will be making brownies. I will let you know how they turn out!

What a beautiful morning!
I hope your Christmas was wonderful too!

Cool!! We open our stocking last!
Andrew got the same thing as Grant! Nerf or Nothing! It hurts so bad to get hit with those bullets!
That is so funny that Grant and Andrew got the same thing. I loved watching Madi take on fire from Grant upstairs. Madi was rolling around and hiding under the table. Thank you for playing with her Grant. She really loves it. I also have the add that Julie looks sooooooo happy! I don't recall her ever being this happy all the time before. Yay!!!!
You got the brownie Perfect pan. That's what I'd like to try out. You'll have to tell me how it works.
