Merry Christmas!

For the first time since we were married, we spent Christmas day at our house with just our little family. It was fun to be there and let Landon and Davis just play and enjoy the day. For Christmas Eve, we acted out the Christmas story. Landon was excited to be a shepherd, but he wanted to make sure he had a shepherd's crook! The used wrapping paper roll came to the rescue and actually worked quite well!

Landon was very excited Christmas morning to see a train table for him and Davis that was "like Caleb's (our neighbor friend) but just a little bit different." He also was excited to see a small Wall-E in his beanstalk (a.k.a. stocking - he gets those words confused), but he wanted to know where Eve was. What was Santa thinking just getting Wall-E but no Eve? :)

Davis liked the train table too as it was just about the right height to walk around. He wasn't too into opening his presents. He liked climbing on top of them better! Landon loved the little table Santa got for him, and he wanted to eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, and do his new puzzle at it.







One of the other favorite toys was a ball-popper. We actually got it for Davis, but it was as big of a hit with Landon as it was with Davis. Here's a little video of the two of them enjoying it. What do you think, does Davis look up to his older brother already? :)

Our kids have loved their ball popper. My sister in law recommended we get it several years ago. And little boys and trains were just made for each other. So glad you had such a nice Christmas. It's always nice to be home and make your own traditions.
