Merry Christmas - 2010

We had a very busy, but very fun Christmas Day! Isaac actually slept in a little bit and didn't wake up until almost 8am! (we won't be getting used to that on Christmas morning I'm sure, but it was a nice gift to mommy & daddy!) We sat and read the Christmas story from Isaac's children's bible. Then we moved on to the stuff that's a little more exciting to a 2 year old...presents!

Isaac was all too excited about his first drum set! I know people think we're nuts...new baby on the way so buy the 2 year old drums...great idea!! But let me just tell you...drums are in tune!!! Buckets, pots, pans, lids, etc are NOT in tune and as lovely as they sound....the drums are a definite step up!! And to see him play his new drums...it's just so much fun!!

I mean, doesn't he look like an expert already??

He got a couple other small things from Mommy and Daddy...

Lowly Worm even helped unwrap a couple...

At lunch, Nana and Boppa came back up (they were here at the beginning of the week for a visit too)...and I think they must have had a tractor trailer load of presents!! They just kept bringing them in. Isaac got all kinds of great stuff...

Here is the gang unwrapping all the presents...

A shot of the excitement of Christmas Day...
(I love this face)

Because of the weather forecast....WHICH IS FOR SNOW!!!!
Oma, Opa, Aunta, Uncle Mark, Madeline and Audrey came up a day early to make sure they got here before the snow. They only got into a little trouble playing while we were making dinner. Madeline found Oma's purse...and her lipstick! She did great putting it on don't you think?

We enjoyed a nice family dinner before Nana and Boppa headed out to beat the weather. It's great to see how our family gets a little bigger every year! Next year we'll add one more!!!

It was a great day with lots of fun and excitement and WAY too many toys! I think we might have to put an addition on the house to hold them all. We all enjoyed having everyone together for the holiday!
