The Christmas Spoils

So this Christmas was different from our last several Christmas' and yet very similar. Different as we spent it on the opposite coast as the last six or seven. But it was on a coast and the weather was beautiful. Nama and Pa drove over from Idaho to spend Christmas eve and Christmas day with us. (Good thing too because I was slacking on photo duty. All these pics were from Pa!)

SKIP TO CHRISTMAS MORNING:

Vance and Joel checking out their Santa gifts.
Santa brought Joel a Leapster Explorer
(it's in the running for greatest investment in the last 5 years.)
Santa brought Vance a "Woody doll that when you pull a string it talks".

Guns from Gram Cracker
These guns light up and make noise-
we tried to convince them they would be great toys for Nama and Pa's house.
No deal. So they're here and the boys love them. =)

The boys also got some new movies, some puzzles, a few new board games, and some other random toys and colds (including ear infections for Joel). I got a few gift cards and the NEW William Sonoma cook book. Tj got a new Ipod Nano and a new wind breaker. It was a nice Christmas. We're also really looking forward to heading down to my sister's house tomorrow and doing Christmas part deux with her and my parents.
