Christmas 2011

Another wonderful Christmas at our house!

Santa came!

Caden was thrilled that Santa picked the spy safe from his very long list of suggestions.

Cole requested a blue Angry Bird from Santa.

After checking out their Santa gifts, the boys emptied their stockings.

After checkng out all that Santa left, we had breakfast, and then the boys opened presents from us.

Later in the morning, Nana and Papa arrived with a truckload of presents.  Aunt Shannon and Josh arrived in the afternoon.  (I don't know why they aren't in any of the photos.)

Kieran helped Papa unload a box of presents.

Then he stacked the presents in a tower!

Typical scene from Christmas break (and will be for many years to come)--Trying out new games

Caden received a Paper Jamz guitar, microphone, and amp.

Legos--another typical scene from our Christmases

Sorry, Aunt Mariah! Kieran is not a big fan of his cute puffer vest.

This Christmas was lots of fun with the boys (as they always are).  I hated to see the season end.  We're already looking forward to Christmas 2012!
