Merry Merry!!

 Ha!  I love the looks on their faces.  Matt:  "I am so tired, but I think I'm supposed to be excited."  Will:  "I know what's about to happen.  Presents baby!"

 That hair!

 Stockings.  Wow!

 Woo hoo!  Remote controlled trucks!  Yes!

 Blair's new Camelback cover.

 Yep. That's me.

 Batman glasses.

 Cars sun glasses.

 Stylin' bros.

 Monsters Inc.

 Matt got a flashlight in his stocking.  Of course, the first thing he does with it is look in everyone's throat.  You can tell what we've been using them for around here.  Did I mention Will's tonsils are coming out two days after Christmas?  

 Moose sweater, or as he calls it: "Moosh!"

 Socks!  Grandpa Ross would be proud.

 Will gave me dish towels and washcloths.

 An ipod?  Unexpected.  Thanks Blair.

 No better way to read new books than with your sunglasses on.

 Socks!  

What a great Christmas.  We have been extra blessed this year.  We've had a semi-rough year with trying to figure out Will's health issues and such, but we have been so blessed to have everything we do.  Here's to another great year!

Gingerbread baking with Grandma

The boys totally look forward to going over to Grandma's and making gingerbread boys.  This year was no exception.

 Flour everywhere!

Parties and Programs

 Matt knew Santa was coming to the big family party.  He seems to be saying, "Bring on Santa" in this pic.  

 My gorgeous sister and her boyfriend posing with my OTHER sister's little boy.  

 He just wanted the candy.

 K. I'm done here.  I need that candy!

 Will pulling out his Christmas list and giving it to Santa.  Santa was indeed

 impressed with his planning and preparations.

 "I want a remote controlled car, Monster's Inc. movie, and Candyland game.  "

 Grandpa with his two sisters and Santa.

 "What? There's candy in there?  Heck ya I'll take a whack at it!"

 I can destroy this thing!

Will's pre-school program was totally cute.  His favorite song was

 "Dashing through the snow, 

on a pair of broken skiis, 

dashing through the woods, 

and crashing into trees. 

The snow is turning red,

 I think I'm almost dead, 

Now I'm in the hospital with staples in my head."  

Oh boy.

 The highlight for me was when he shook his jingle bell too hard and it came off.  He looked around like, "What do I do now?"  Someone handed it up to him and he picked up right where they were.  Proud of his calm demeanor.  I would have panicked for sure if I was a four year old.
