Christmas

Christmas Day and the rest of the week was fun as well! They boys loved Christmas, although Caden was NOT interested in opening presents. He just wanted to play with what everyone else opened, so I ended up opening lots of his things while he was in the vicinity. Carson on the other hand wanted to help everyone open presents. If there was a present to be opened, he was there!

Christmas morning pictures:

Carson got a digital camera from Santa this year. It was quite a hit.


Caden got a Roll-Arounds Dinosaur. All of the kids like his toy, and it was really funny to see the big kids crowd around the baby toys. I was amazed that Caden figured out how to put the balls in the holes pretty quickly without help.










Cary's nephews, Parker, Jackson and Chandler got a Wii for Christmas, so the adults spent lots of time playing with it.
(Cary's going to kill me for this, but he started the Wii picture taking, and this one is just too funny to pass up!)


Game Night at Brittney's: (Poor Ash had to work.)


We also enjoyed shopping at the Promenade after Christmas....after all, what's Christmas week without shopping?


On the way home, we decided to drive about a third of the way on Friday night, stay in a hotel, and drive the rest of the way on Saturday. I think this helped the kids a lot. We also stopped at a McDonalds for an extended amount of time for lunch. They had the coolest play area for kids. They even had a separate area for toddlers, and it was remarkably clean for a McD's play place.



Carson is quite the shot:
