Christmas morning was obviously a lot of fun, but more relaxed than in previous years. When Thomas opened up a pirate ship from Grandma Blackner, we all stopped opening and took about an hour to put the thing together. We then took a break for sourdough pancakes. In all, we opened and played until about 1 pm. It was a lot of fun. In the afternoon, we joined our favorite neighbors for Christmas dinner with their family. Steve played Rock Band to his hearts content. That might be our first purchase when we make real money. Forget a new house. Rock Band it is.
They fell asleep together on Christmas Eve.
Putting together the pirate ship
Hewitt loves his new boots and train set.
What a mess!
Donny's present of this air ball popper from Grandma Smith turned out to be their present of the day. Donny and Hewitt played with it for at least five hours.
Hope everyone's Christmas was wonderful. It was nice to have time to reflect on our blessings and to celebrate our Saviour's birth. Merry Christmas.

Steve-Our little boys are very alike. We do the Playmobile pirate ships, Thomas the Train, and all that stuff. Gotta love little boys. They keep me on my toes, and they especially keep Mom on her toes, anyways, just wanted to say Merry Christmas and your family is beautiful.
Glad to see you had a great Christmas. Thank heavens for your wonderful neighbors!
Merry Christmas! I hope you guys didn't miss home too much! Sounds like they are getting more snow in Seattle than we are! Your kiddos are like mine, they have to stop to open each toy package before moving on! Drives me crazy, but we're supposed to be relaxed all day! Hope you had a good one!:)
I am so jealous that you got to do your very own Christmas. Kenna has been missing Thomas a lot lately. She still says he is her handsome Prince and is 100% convinced that she will marry him one day. Hey do you all plan on going back to WA to practice? Brad is looking at a few places there. Love you tons
I'm so glad you guys had a good Christmas! Ours was fun but I don't know how relaxing Christmas while on the road can actually be. :) We miss your family. Have a good new year!
I am glad you had a good Christmas. We missed you. We were hoping you would be in Washington.
the suspense is killing me!
Hey babe!! Just wondering how you guys are doing!?! Do you know where you will be next year? What is your address? Jarom has something from Thomas! Lots of Love. SUSAN
Looks like fun! We miss you guys and your fun boys!
Can't believe I haven't seen your blog until just now. Your boys are adorable and you two look fantastic as always. We miss you guys--come set up shop somewhere warm. We could use a great dentist down here!
