Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas

Christmas is just that magical. And I can't hear the word without thinking of the song that starts Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas. This year was no different. The tree was simple and beautiful, the presents lovely, the company (Mom and Elizabeth) phenominal, and the atmosphere was pure magic. Of course the boys awaited the word to tear into presents. This year we tried to slow it down a bit because in years past they have unwrapped at an incredible rate. But here is one of the boys opening gifts simeltaneously.
Wyatt showing off his loot. Apparently Santa knows my little boy because he got gun after knife after rocket launcher after num chucks after sword...you get the picture. He loves all sorts of violent weapontry.
Kody was in heaven. He loved the excitement, the wrapping paper, and took an instant liking to his push car. He loves to sit on it and is getting the hang of pushing himself since his brothers have commandeered the vehicle to show him at least a half a dozen times. Thanks Nana.
And last of all one of my personal favorites was Bella realizing that Santa doesn't know so much after all because he got her a guitar and she is not allowed to take guitar lessons till she is eight. She was ecstatic and couldn't stop saying awesome. Click on the picture to see the word exiting her lips. And since then she has graced us with musical presentations, and we have started a fun tradition of me serenading her with lullabies at night.
Our Christmas was very merry and I hope that you all had a merry one too.
