Ethan and Eli - the little stinkers- wriggled through a gate made of about 30 feet of hemp rope, placed specifically at the top of the stairs to keep them up, and got a look at all of their Santa gifts in advance. Curtis jumped out of bed and hollered at them to come upstairs-
Curtis to Ethan: Why did you go downstairs?? You knew you weren't supposed to!
Ethan: kind of wailing- Eli TEMPTED me!!!
I was so disappointed that I missed seeing their faces when they came down the stairs! But after I got over that, we had a fun time opening stockings, playing with toys, and opening more gifts!
Jonah loves clothes, he loves to look 'cool'- and he does, wearing the same 3 pair of ratty sweats over and over!
Bakugans and teeny baby doll! That's what having 3 older brothers will do to you!
Jabba's sail barge!
The funnest part about D-Rex was listening to Ethan talk to it like it's alive... "oh D-Rex, you have really soft skin... come on D-Rex, get Jonah...
In the afternoon we went over to grandy and Grumpy's house for Christmas dinner, and opened more gifts.
Oh, and Curtis spent some time outside shoveling and snowblowing! It started snowing Wednesday night, and didn't stop until Friday morning- it was awesome having a white Christmas, all snug and cozy inside while the snow came down. We are so blessed to celebrate the birth of Christ surrounded by family this year!
We came home and ended the day by watching Santa Buddies by the light of the Christmas Tree. What a fun day.
