The boys woke up and after we reminded them it was Christmas, couldn't wait to go downstairs. I am sure next year we won't even have to remind them!
We came down to the playroom and Santa had left presents...all nice and color-coordinated. Danny had the white wrapped ones, Andrew had the green ones, and Dylan had the red ones. Their stockings were hung over their pile so they knew which one was theirs. They opened the treats in their stockings...and then got ready to dig in to the other presents. Dylan and Andrew started opening things right away, but unfortunately, Danny decided he did not like presents wrapped in white paper, he liked the ones in green. After Andrew generously gave him some green ones to open, then we really got on a roll. But the funny thing was...they would open something, and love it, and then play with it for a while, and then come back to open something else. So all the opening took the span of hours and hours. We opened trucks and played with those, playdough and played with that for a long time, even opened new paint and had to test that out right away. We stopped and had breakfast, even a snack, and were still opening. We finished up with presents in the family room. It was a wonderful Christmas and the boys were really into everything! All these fun new toys are going to make the winter so fun!
