{Christmas Day}

Don't judge me. The only pictures I took on Christmas were on Christmas night. So, I didn't get any pictures of either of the boys opening presents on Christmas morning. I did get video of the whole thing, though, so I'm not the worst mom in the world after all. Ha, ha!

Our day was crazy, as usual. We got up and opened presents. Eli got a kitchen set and he wasn't interested in playing with anything else or opening any presents because the kitchen was way too much fun. Oh yeah, and no lame jokes about kitchen sets being for girls--there are more famous men chefs than there are women. Anyway, so Isaac was thrilled to open Eli's gifts for him. David's dad, Jerry came over for breakfast--I made french toast with cinnamon burst bread from Great Harvest--super yummy, as well as eggs and bacon with orange juice to drink. We exchanged gifts from Jerry and put Eli down for a brief nap while we got ready for the day. Next ,we went to David's mom, Jerilyn's home for a fabulous lunch/dinner. We exchanged gifts there, and then rushed to the Becerra's (Juan and Lisa's) home to visit and exchange gifts with them. THEN, we had to get home and pick up the mess from the morning in time for my family to come and visit/exchange gifts. We had about 15 minutes to pick up before people started showing up. We at super-yummy panini's, shrimp dip with chips and fresh cut veggies--plus, more that I can't remember. Mmmmm. We all got our matching jammies, too! Love them! Everyone ended up leaving quite late--around 1:30 or 2:00am. We were so tired, but it was a fun and exciting day.

Here is our little basketball team of grand-boys. Aren't they so dang cute? Isaac with his three missing teeth (he lost the top one the week of Christmas). Isaac is holding Beau, who's loving the piece of celery he's munching on. Jonathan is holding Eli, and Dylan is on the end. Love these boys! You have to click on the picture for a close-up to really appreciate how cute they all are!

Love it!
