Christmas morning was an early one for me and Boston. Then came the next early riser, Berk, at about 6:30, Braden woke next and we woke up Brenner so by 7 we could open presents. The boys loved everything, of course. We unwrapped for what seemed like forever, and again, despite really trying to cut back on the number of gifts the kids got, they were spoiled. It was only 2 weeks ago, but I can barely remember it. Newborn brain and all. Here is a rundown of the gift highlights...
Rusty- Lots of new (smaller) clothes, an assortment of running related items,
Caryn- Ice cream maker for my Kitchenaide, PINK sweatshirt and campus pants, cookbooks, books,
Braden- PS3 Motion and games, Airsoft gun and ammo, and a free wheel for his bike
Berkley- 3DS and games, Wii games, soccer ball
Brenner- Cars ball pit, Batman trike, Scooter, Elmo instruments
Boston- clothes, small toys, activity playmat,
Family- a black Wii, a digital Piano (from Becks), handmade wooden blocks (my parents)
This door/wall of cards is one of the things I most look forward to each holiday season. I am always so sad to take it down. I love looking at them and running to the mail box each day to see what new photos we had gotten.
Here is our biggest gift of the day. We got a piano! It is technically a keyboard, but it has so many bells and whistles and I love watching the boys and especially Rusty, learning and re learning to play the piano.
It's funny as the boys are getting older our house looks less like Toys R Us threw up in it and more of a Toys R Us/ Best Buy combo kind of thing. We got to see the Becks that day and my sister the MacMasters came over in the afternoon. We missed seeing my parents and Rhonda's family because they had the 24 flu. Yuck!

Fun fun fun!
Christmas cards and pictures on the wall is MY most favorite too! Thank you for always sending one our way!
Caryn, I got a kitchenaid ice cream maker too! Do you love yours? We made vanilla ice cream with PB Oreos & it was delish. I can't wait until all the summer fruits are ripe to really try it out. Looks like you guys had a great Christmas! Cute family!!
