Christmas Day!

Merry Christmas!  My favorite part of Christmas morning is being together as a family.  The boys were SO happy to be thought of by so many of their family and friends!  They were also excited about giving gifts to each other.  I felt like we had a very meaningful Christmas, but this post is mostly about their presents.  They are just so excited in these pictures! Christmas morning, the boys came down the stairs to see their presents.  We were so lucky that they slept in!  When Tyson and Austin did wake up, they waited patiently for Neal to get going.  It was so nice!

They got Cereal with spoons in their stockings!

Neal was loving his book from Grandma!

 

The boys wanted to play with each toy before opening the next.  It was so rewarding to watch!

Tyson and his knock-knock joke book.  He is just starting to understand humor!  I LOVE him!

Austin was so excited about the car in his stocking!

Austin in his minion suit :) Thank you Christian!

We took a break after opening stockings and had our Christmas oranges and cereal! Tyson wanted to save his orange from his stocking, so he took one of the matching ones from the bowl on the table :)

I just love these guys!

They were so excited to have something of their very own.  It was adorable!

Grandma Francis sent us some cars that you pull back and they go on their own.  Neal was in heaven!  All the boys went to play!

It was so much fun!

Austin and Neal

The race is on!  Neal now tries to pull back on all of his cars.  It's adorable!

Neal didn't need anything else to be over-joyed!

But...he got this beauty from Goodwill.  He was pretty thrilled!

We were the recipients of gifts from so many of our family!  All of our Grandparents, parents, many of our siblings, and aunts and uncles were so kind to think of us.  We are so grateful as we live so far from so many.  I was just amazed

Here the boys are mesmerized by a singing puppet!  It was so funny to watch!

Neal couldn't stop dancing!

The boys got to wrap up their gifts to Christian.  Here is Austin's gift--now that's a lot of tape!

Thank you Grandma!  The boys were in heaven!

The boys got each other gifts this year.  Tyson got Austin some bubbles which of course had to be played with ASAP!

Barefoot and all!  Even though it was COLD!

Brothers are just so much fun!

Neal just loving life!

Big and little brothers!

I love this picture!

Can I have a turn?

I love it!

Complete giddiness!

Christmas is so much fun to share with little kids, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and more.  The best present is being together, forgiving one another, and treating others as Christ taught.  I'm so grateful for this gift! Merry Christmas!
