Christmas Day

Paw Paw & Maw Maw came over around 6:30 am Christmas morning to watch the boys open their gifts from Santa. Little Paul almost always wakes up at this time, but he decided to sleep another half hour this morning.....go figure! After he got up, he went straight to the tree, but we told him to wait for Preston. He woke Preston up and they got started opening Santa's gifts. Paul went first and started getting some presents for himself and Preston soon followed. Preston got his own power wheels 4 wheeler and Paul got a kid tough digital camera and some skates like Preston's. They also got a gas pump, V-motion, activity trays, several movies, their own silverware sets with their names engraved on them (even Peyton got some), new car comforters, computers, and several other things. I guess Santa thought they were extra good this year! Even Toby got some tennis balls and treat snacks! Mommy & Daddy gave them framed posters of themselves in race car outfits to match their room! Peyton slept through most of this, but we did open his presents with him once he woke up a bit later! He also got some really good presents!!! Thanks Paw Paw and Maw Maw for coming and for bringing them donuts and chocolate milk!After all of that, we noticed that Santa left them something else outside! I have never put a video on here, so I am trying it out; I hope it works! Preston was so cute because he didn't see the house right away! Here it is:


Peyton woke up in the middle of all this....Merry 1st Christmas Peyton!

After that, we all got dressed and headed to Mimi's house in Slidell. We ate our traditional Christmas dinner and got to visit a lot of our family and friends. The boys got several more presents and the adults played the elephant game again; it was a lot of fun for all of us! Santa even dropped by for a visit!!! Preston didn't seem to mind and Peyton didn't really care, but Paul would not go by him until the very end for this picture pretty much!!! Grandpa talked him into sitting by him to take a picture! Thanks Santa, that was so sweet of you to get all dressed and visit the boys!!!!

The family minus the kids

  1. I love the shirts Paul and Preston has on! hehe. I watched the video, it was cute, but I was expecting it to be way longer lol. They looked really excited, especially Preston when he took off running to the house.
