Christmas

We are finally settled after getting back from our Christmas trip up to Maryland. We celebrated with our family on Christmas Eve before heading up to Maryland on Christmas Day. We weren't planning on going to Maryland till the weekend but Brad was in his cousin's wedding on the 27th so he flew out from Maryland so I could be with my family.

We got up early with Micah and waited for the rest of the boys to get up!

We finally sent Jacob up to get Chase (Brad had to go into work for a little bit later in the morning). It was fun seeing Chase come downstairs and seeing the presents. Even though we don't "do Santa" I would say the excitement Christmas morning is not diminished at all!



Checking out the gifts while picking his bottom :) He will kill me for this later!


Reading the Christmas Story.


Putting Jesus on the Advent Calendar. The boys did pretty good taking turns opening the doors and putting the stuff on the calendar.

Starting off with the stockings.



Thanks grandma and grandpa for legos!


Chase wanted to open every gift and then play with them while Jacob took his time opening each gift and then wanted to play with it. I love seeing their different personalities!




Taking a quick break from presents to have breakfast.



Chase still LOVES trains. He was excited for this poster to put in his room.

Opening the big gift from grandmom and grandpop.





There is an ipad holder on it. You can download an app that has jumping games for the kids to do.

With all your pictures we feel like we were a part of your Christmas Eve morning. The poster with frame looked perfect for Chase and Jacob's room!

Finally got to check out the Christmas pictures! Looked like they were happy little guys, having a fun time together. That train poster is just right! Great idea!
