Merry Christmas!! ha ha

I realize how sad it is that it is January and I am just now posting our Christmas stuff. I am not sure why I can't seem post things until weeks after they happen...oh well.

Christmas was a lot of fun as always. This year the kids slept in until 8! It was great, especially since Santa's little helpers were up late. Bill and Elaine came over to watch the kids open their presents, and brought us some breakfast. Then in the afternoon we went to their house to see Wes and Jenny (who flew in on Christmas day), and we all had dinner together and opened the family presents.

Zoie was not ready to wake up when the boys were,

so Nolan was trying to get her excited about the whole Santa came thing.

Once she woke up completely, she got excited. This is a tent for her bed that we were hoping would get her to start sleeping in her bed at night...no such luck. At least she likes to play in it.

Nolan and Aidan both got remote control helicopters. They were a big hit.
Yea, more playdoh to smush in the carpet!

Aidan, with his pitching machine. He'll start pre-T-ball in a few weeks.

Nolan got a telescope. He has always liked to learn about space thanks to his kindergarten teacher.

Zoie also got a box up dress up dresses, which she loves.

I've taught her well, she loves clothes and shoes!

Aidan and Nana
I am pretty sure that in this picture Wes was trying to talk one of the kids into giving him their money. They didn't fall for it.
Zoie felt it was her duty to stack everyone's presents.
