Christmas

Christmas this year was a wonderful, relaxing day.  The boys were excited to open all of their gifts, and we enjoyed spending the day with Shane’s parents and with Kelly.  The boys were spoiled as always, as were we! 

 

The stockings:

   

Headlamps!  Landon has been asking for this Lego headlamp for Christmas since the summer.  Davis and James loved their Cars headlamps too.  (You can’t tell so much in this picture of James, but he really does like it)

I made the boys some animals masks this year for one of their gifts:

       

Some excited faces!  James was especially good at these.  He made this face with every gift he opened.

 

New slippers for James and a new Angry Birds shirt for Davis:

 

New Angry Birds underwear for Landon, and new flashlights from Uncle Kelly:

 

A monster building set from Kelly, and two great games from Gma and Gpa Malan:

 

A Paris clock for Kent and Christie:

 

James’s favorite gift to play with Christmas day was his new train.  It is battery powered, so he loved setting up the track and watching it go!  He also liked seeing how many train cars he could attach to it.  He spent most of his day playing with the train.

 

Landon and Davis had fun with their Lego sets from Santa.  Davis’s was a 3-in-1 that had two planes and a boat; Landon’s was a satellite launch pad.  You can see Landon’s headlamp was still a favorite gift!

 

We also had fun trying out our new games.  Here, we’re playing Robot Uno, but we also tried out our Lego Creationary game and our Cars Monopoly game – all big hits!

I took these pictures a few days later, but here is each of the boys with their Christmas gifts, minus their gifts from the Morris side of the family. (Those pictures to come later)
