We had a big day. After all, go big or go home when it comes to Christmas. Prior to today we had donated/sold/thrown away about 90% of the kids' toys in anticipation of new toys.
And we totally went overboard.
Because that's what's fun about Christmas. Having your kids wake up and see an incredibly overflowing Christmas tree that takes TWO hours to open.
The kids got everything they wanted. Calen asked Santa for a pirate ship for him and a firetruck for his brother. And Santa delivered. He also got the boys each their very own little foam sofas that fold out to be nap mats. Which.They.Love. And tons and tons of other toys, pajamas, dress up stuff (fireman suits and pirate and police, for example), movies, Nerf guns, anything and everything you can think of.
And more.
The big joint gift from my grandparents was a big Powerwheels 4 wheeler. Which daddy and I totally forgot about. Until after the boys had gone down for a much needed nap. So after they woke up, we took them outside for one last surprise.
Calen LOVES it. He drives it well, even the hand throttle to activate the turbo. Up and down the sidewalk, the grassy hill behind the house, over and over. Brad even held Cam on the back who also had a blast.
Then came Christmas dinner with our Coast Guard family. Good times, good food, bacon wrapped turkey, what could be better?
Enjoy the photo dump.
