CHRISTMAS!!!

 Christmas this year was great. Preston enjoyed it a lot more then he did last year, but still doesn't understand the whole idea. All he cares about is the fact we got to have a tree in our house ("tee-tee-tee" = Christmas tree) and when we drove around at night we got to see lights, which he was very good at pointing out over and over and over again.

Since Christmas was on a Sunday, and we had church at 9am we didn't start our activities till after we got home. But Preston was still very excited when he woke up by the presents around the tree.



We did take a few minutes to look at all the presents & play with the chalkboard he got.
(The chalkboard has since been thrown away b/c I made it from an old picture frame & as much fun as a chalkboard is we couldn't risk broken glass.

 Thanks to the Christmas Eve festivities with Patrick's family Preston was a pro at opening presents on Christmas. In fact he wanted to open everyone's presents. He must have been good this year since he got a lot of books, a new puzzle, CD's, Cars slippers, blocks, airplanes, and a bubble mower.
 Oh and Jaxton celebrated too by looking cute.


After presents we got to talk to Andrew which was probably the best part of Christmas! Only 71 more days till he's home!!! Then everyone came over for a delicious Christmas dinner & some fun with the Kinect (my gift from Patrick). It was a great day and we're already looking forward to next year when the boys are older and understand more.
