Christmas Day 2010

Everything from the drumset and keyboard over to the scooter was dropped off by Santa

Lane on his "big boy" scooter!

Yes, Santa brought Logan a drum set!

Christmas morning started at our around 6:30AM. The boys ran into our room to wake us up surprisingly before they checked out what Santa left. We headed off to the playroom for all the excitement. The drum set and scooter were a big success. I think all of us have played a little on the drum set! I'm not sure if Lane was more excited about the scooter or the basketball that was sitting next to it! The boys decided their pillow pets and their toy story snuggies were their favorite of all their gifts! Which was kind of shocking considering the amount of gifts Santa left.

Mommy and Daddy were not left out. Aaron got a Casio Pathfinder watch that he's been drooling over. It comes with a compass, barometer, altimeter, and a few other things that I don't know the meaning of. I just know he should never be lost again! He also got clothes and a few other nick knacks. Santa brought me a Kindle and an awesome red case that has the neatest little light on it which is perfect for night time car reading or bedtime reading. Aaron also got me a jewelry armoire and a houndstooth jacket which you know was a big hit with this Alabama fan!

One other little bonus was the white Christmas we woke up to. It wasn't our first white Christmas thanks to Alaska but it did remind us of being in Alaska. Aaron was super excited about the snow. I thought it was pretty...but I was glad to know it would soon be gone!

I cooked us a pretty tasty turkey along with the fixings and we just spent the day inside. Lane was sick for the second day in a row with a stomach virus and fever. He felt good first thing that morning opening his presents but right after we finished he got sick again and ended up spending most of the day just laying on the couch. He finally got up around 3 that afternoon only to get sick again not long after and then the fever returned. He was back on the couch for the rest of day.

On Sunday Lane was a little better but you could tell he was still not himself. We woke up to the boys being all excited because "they were going to Grammy and Papaw's for the week." So that afternoon we headed off to meet Grammy and Uncle TT and off they went to their grandparents while Mommy and Daddy headed back home. It was a very strange feeling and we missed them tons but they had the greatest time being spoiled rotten at their grandparent's house! More on that later. Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!!!
