Did Santa Leave Anything?

The boys were anxious to get home and see what Santa left.  Myself, Landon, and Carson left ahead of Bryan, because I wanted to get home and put a ham in the oven for dinner. Bryan was estimating that he and Peyton would be home by 6:30. I was able to keep Landon and Carson away from the living room


When I went upstairs this is what I found.........

 

Looks like Santa followed our directions:)
 
Oh DEER! This must be Peyton's....a CAMO bed spread!
 
Carson will be so excited.....his very own ride on Train!
 
 
Looks like Landon got an "adult" sized bike.....where has the time gone? My first born is growing up!
 

 
Smiles and Survivor.....for my Survivor obsessed Teenager!

 
Air Soft for Peyton.....Surprise
 
 
Carson has it all figured out! He can ride his Train and read a new book!!

 
Maybe this model ship will occupy Peyton away from video games for a while!
 
Papa P stayed at our house Christmas night.....we put his gift in one of those Prank Boxes....he almost fell for it!!
 
Carson is starting to figure out this opening gifts task!

 
 
Even though Bryan was exhausted from taking care of his dad....he still managed to play a few board games with the boys.....As you can tell from our disaster in our living room we had a Very Merry & Blessed Christmas!

Christmas Morning at Papa's House

Christmas Morning 2013

This was Bryans year to stay at his dads house and take care of his dad for Christmas. Bryan and his siblings alternate weekends at his dads and have been doing that for over 8 years now.

We decided to speak with Santa and tell him to carry on with his reindeer and deliver his surprises at our house.......the boys would just wait until later Christmas Night for Santa.

We did however have a few surprises for Christmas morning at Papa's house.

The Pickle Ornament was our first fun event. Bryan hid the Pickle and Landon and Peyton started searching for it.

 
I don't know about you, but it kind of looks like the big kid is doing a little holding....
 
 
And Landon found the Pickle........what was his special surprise?
 
 
A Huge box of Nerds.....Just the Perfect Gift to Share with his brothers.
 
 
Next it was time for all 3 boys to rip open the larger in size gift that mom and dad had ready for them.  This gift drove the older two nuts for a couple of weeks......They could not figure out what we had that all 3 of them would enjoy. I didn't know but Bryan had given clues.....It's black.....Messy.....and little Carson will need help with it..........it was A FIRE PIT!!! Something for all of us.......Bryan jumped out of bed the day after Thanksgiving at 4:30 am to get this on a deal. The boys were excited and surprised.
 

 
Carson was the first to open his individual gift.....a Fisher Price Toddler Set!
 
 
Peyton's gift was an XBOX game and headset

 
Landon just can't figure out what is all bundled up for him 


 
What a surprise....A Bow and Arrow!
 
Carson plays with his gift


 
Happy Birthday Jesus!!!
 
Now I know 3 boys who will have to wait patiently to get home later and see if Santa came.

Merry CHRISTmas!!

When I started this blog at the first of November I had all intentions of posting Halloween photos and fun fall family activities. Here it is December 25th and where has the time gone? I can blame being "busy" on a lot of the reason I have not posted anything since I started. Another big reason is my almost two year old "picked" letter keys off of our family computer. I will post a photo.....what a little stinker he is!! I now have a new computer and am hoping I figure this blogging thing out for 2014.

Happy Birthday Jesus!!
