Merry Merry!!

Jude is very excited about the toys Santa brought. Actually he smiles pretty easily.
Caleb and his "lump 'o coal". Apparently he's been naughty this year!
When the boys opened their gifts from the Jeffers it STOPPED Christmas. They were so into reading them that Caleb and I were putting things together before we opened any more gifts.
So next year for SURE we're getting cute Christmas pj's. These just don't quite cut it.
Do you think Silas could use some pj's? Even if he had them he would only wear them for 5 min. The kid loves to be naked!!

It was a great Christmas. Elias tried to get up at 1am. We had the "talk" with him this year so he wouldn't be made fun of for being the only 4th grader still believing. Even with this knowledge when we told him to go back to bed he proclaimed, "But Santa CAME!". It was as if we'd never had our little discussion. We did tell him that you have to believe to receive so that he won't spoil it for the younger kids but seriously...he had jingle bells in his eyes all month. We finally got up @ 6:30 and we spent about 2 hrs. opening gifts. We'd open and play and open and play. It snowed all Christmas day so it was an awesome White Christmas! Hope yours went as well as ours!
