Christmas Day was magical, exhausting and fun.
The boys woke us up at 5:01 (I told Anderson he had to sleep until at least 5) and we went pretty strong all day.
Stockings are my favorite.
Anderson got an X-box, SEC helmets, some kind of crazy Nerf gun that shoots balls (they hurt) and some other random things. He was, of course, most excited about the X-box. We have been wrapping his "big" gift in this Blender box for a few years and this year Santa took it and put his X-box in it.
Max got a police station, police vehicles, dinosaur set, shark attack set and a bunch of other random things.
I was correct in that all of the shark things would be his favorite. He loves to take baths and pretend attack/destroy animals in there.
I was really excited about this Polar Bear blanket; it is seriously so cute and so warm. Max was not as impressed.
We got Anderson an Alvin Kamara jersey and wrapped it in this "Earwax Candle kit." He was very concerned about the box.
Note: Max reading his new book in the background. He loves the "Who Would Win?" books and this one is T-Rex vs. Velociraptor.
But, he loved the jersey!
I have used these bags every year since Max was born. This year Max said, "Oh, I get it! I am Max and he is the Grinch because he is always grumpy."
No comment from me.
Biscuits and bacon because my kids won't eat anything festive or remotely not basic.
Aunt LoLo made us all delicous hot chocolate mix and I broke into it pretty early.
Then we went to GG's for more festivities!
The Bishops/Salvaggios stopped by for dinner (from Calhouns) and to build legos/go to a movie.
Someone likes the blanket!
Anderson's X Box, cousins....also, Giant Anderson became our tree topper.
