Christmas Morning

Jill volunteered to work for their secretary who has a 6yo, so that is why is isn't in any pictures. We look at out Santa stuff, eat breakfast and then open presents.We are waiting on the stairs to see what Santa brought.
Adam & Austin checking out the train table. There was another picture that I contemplated posting instead of this one, Adam is standing staring at the train in disbelief that it is actually there.
Adam is watching for the train to come through the tunnel. He kept following it around the table and "helping" it and yelling "move Papa." We are working for asking for things instead of demanding that people do what you want, he is good at asking for actual items (chocolate please, please grapes) but actions are harder for him to grasp.
Austin on his John Deer ATV (Austin is playing on it as I post this). Adam is really enjoying it as well. It sings a song and has blinkers. It also has a few sayings like "let's work."
Mom getting breakfast ready while the rest of us enjoy watching the boys play with their new toys from Santa.
This is the only picture that we have with a present from someone besides Santa. The boys could have cared less about unwrapping presents. We had to call them in everytime it was their turn to open a present and then it right back to the Santa stuff. Adam did get pretty excited when he opened the present from Ga & Papa. Papa asked him what he got and he replied "a BOX!" (it was a red wagon). I hope next Christmas is just as fun as this was.

The picture of you as a blogging queen was stolen from this very stair photograph, but taken in the late 80s/early 90s. The carpet has changed, and so have some of the faces. But not yours! : )

Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you for posting. It makes me feel like I was there, too!

The best picture is the one of Adam watching the train come along the track. His face is priceless! Austi on the tractor is pretty awesome, too!

Poor Mom! That picture of her is just too classic. But _my_ fvorite Adam face is the one on the stairs, all expectant-like with a twinge of fresh-out-of-bedness.

This blog keeps getting better and better. Love the picture of Bryan on the stairs. Why does he always get stoned on Christmas?
