Merry Christmas! (a little late)

The boys had a very Merry Christmas. It started off great for everyone - Nate slept all night for a change, and Jack woke up at 7:15, asked for water, then went back to bed until 7:45 (his normal wake-up time). Great gifts for mom and dad...I thought Jack might be up really early this year.

Jack and Nate were excited to see all the presents under the tree. Nate's big gift from Santa was a new kitchen, which you can see in the pictures. He spent most of the day opening and closing the cabinets and definitely loves it. Jack was super excited about his new "dig-truck-train" which is a duplo train car with a digging arm - a breakdown train car I guess it is really called. He also loved his Fireman Sam firetruck that Santa got all the way from England. A myriad other books, gadgets, train cars, and trucks also appeared for both boys.

We were lucky enough to host Grandma Linda/Papa Rick as well as Grandpa Pete for the day. A good time was had by all. Now we are hunkered down waiting for what they claim is going to be a huge blizzard.
