Christmas Day

Christmas dinner at home

The first sight and awe of presents under the tree (check out Izy's facial expression!)

The boys first guns (toys of course)

How awesome to be 2 or 3 years old at Christmas. Watching the boys enjoy the simplest of things on Christmas morning was the most fun Cody and I have had on Christmas since we were kids. Its so magical to watch them open the tiniest car or train (even the orange in their stockings) and be so totally immersed and excited that none of the other presents even matter. We did eventually make it through all the presents and were able to settle down to a very quiet family dinner.

Later in the day we enjoyed a "white elephant" party at our friends house. It was the perfect mix of family and friends for a very special holiday.
