Christmas Take Two


Since my mom spent Christmas in Boise with my brother, we decided to wait until she got home to open the family presents. Needless to say, it was another night of building and wrapping that put us to bed far too late to have to get up the next morning. Kylie got a Loving Family Doll House from my mom, Aunt, and Eric. She was thrilled. A mini van, set of twins, hours of entertainment...Priceless. Connor got Thomas the Trian everything from a pillow case to a whole train table! Upon unwrapping a box (before seeing what was inside) he exclaimed,"Oh me gosh!". We finally broken down and let mom, Auntie Sue, and Eric get the boys a Wii. For months they have been saving money to buy one. Clark sent them on a scavenger hunt around the house. They raced from the thrid floor to the basement reading clues. Finally they were told to open our ottoman (which we have been calling our "wee couch" get it?) to find the controllers. Once they found them they just kept saying,"I can't believe we have a Wii!" Personally, I don't know who is more excited the kids or Clark and I. If you haven't played it is a roit. I even caught grandma boxing once!! It was a great day.
