Let it be Christmas!

We did our own Christmas with the boys Christmas Eve morning.  Gosh how lucky are we, really, 3 boys full of energy, lots to be thankful for, and so much to enjoy. It was super relaxed, we woke up, had breakfast and did not even tell the kids we were going to be opening presents, so they wouldn't be bugging us.  So when they found it it was time, it was a total surprise.  As you can see we don't really play up the whole Santa came and left presents, it was mom coming down the downstairs with boxes full of wrapped gifts.  Magical!! :) 

We only got Kyler one gift, what does a 3rd boy really need?  So he had fun just opening and throwing wrapping paper everywhere, and took a lot of interest in checking out what Crew and Brody got, which did not make them very happy, but has already mastered the role of the youngest brother.  As you can see from some of the pictures, Brodes was not a happy camper, on day two of high temps, come to find out 2 days later he does in fact have a double ear infection.  Even with that he was such a trooper at all the parties the following days!

"Let it be Christmas everywhere, feel the love of the season wherever you are...let heavenly music fill the air...let anger and fear and hate disappear...let there be love that lasts through the year..."
 These guys make everything worth it!  Love you!
 Lotso!  His tummy even smells like strawberries!
 Oh yeah baby!
 Kys loves all the gifts... :)
 Every cowboy needs his own hat....Sheriff Woody...
 Chris LOVES putting together all of the toys....
Merry Christmas!

Colt wants to come and play at your house! Looks like the boys got lots of presents, get rid of the old to make room for the new.:) We still need to talk, Marni is here until tomorrow morning so maybe after that? Hope Brodes gets to feeling better soon. Both my boys woke up with colds on Christmas day but so far that's all they have. Miss you!
