Merry Christmas!

Christmas is almost over. It was a lovely day. The boys woke up early and came down, were sent back up until a respectable hour (I must be getting old), peeked at all their gifts, got chastised for said peeking, went back up, came down again. Paige finally woke and they came down together and screamed at the sight of all that Santa left for them. Stockings were torn open, pictures were taken, batteries were found. All the things that should happen on Christmas happened. We stayed in our pajamas all day, opening presents until afternoon, oohing and aaahing at the treasures underneath the pretty wrapping. We all got things we didn't expect and things we did. The excitement lingered late into the day. We ate too much, took naps, played the wii, ate some more, napped some more. We were together. It was delightful. Hope your day was just as merry.

Hey We got a Wii too! Isn't it nice to go bowling without going bowling? Perfect when you're not brave enough to venture outside in this freeziness!
