Christmas Morning

I will post some videos soon, but for now, here is Christmas morning pictures.  My boys didn't get dressed for five days in a row.  They were so happy to stay home, play with their toys, and be with their family.  It was pretty much the best Christmas ever :)

These were the two presents the boys wanted the most!

Remote control helicopter!

Working together!

This picture is priceless.

Nate was so excited with every present he opened.

Nick's big present- his MarioKart racing set!

Nate playing with his Mickey Spaceship.
Daddy and Nick playing with his helicopter.




It broke three days later :)

We were lucky to have Chris and Tony for dinner.  We all sang Happy Birthday to Jesus.

The big boys working hard!

Christmas Eve

Nate laughed and laughed at Christmas Eve on Sesame Street when Cookie tries to call Santa but ends up eating the phone instead.

This year, I felt like we were finally not in a rush.  Kids were at a very good age.  It was a beautiful day.

Nick's Piano Playing

His playing has gotten amazing.  He has quite the knack for sight reading and barely needs my help at this point.  I do give him lessons and tips.  I love hearing him play.

I am so blessed that I simply don't have time to blog about my children anymore.  They fill my life with so much busy and for that I am thankful.  I will have pictures from Christmas up soon, but here is our Santa picture from this year.  Could it be any more perfect?  The look of wonder in both of them is captured beautifully.  This Christmas was wonderful.  I promise to post more soon.  We hope your New Year has been filled with happy.
