"The #1 Christmas Ever!"

Greg and I had decided in the summer that we would like to get 4-wheelers for Christmas. We searched high and low and found an incredible deal on two new ones. We bought then and hid one in Grandpa Dee's shed and the other one at Greg's work in the storage shed. We would talk about them using the code name, "bastings". We were pretty lucky the boys didn't figure it out before Christmas.
I think the kids were convinced that Christmas was over when I mentioned that we had one more present waiting. I led them upstairs and out onto the front porch. As you can see, Gavin was speechless. I thought his eyes were going to pop out of his head. He couldn't believe it. Enoch just wanted to ride our new 4-wheeler. Greg took the boys out for a ride (perfect weather, inches of fresh powdery snow). After a bit of riding, we parked the 4-wheeler in the driveway and asked Gavin to open the garage door. Inside the garage was another 4-wheeler! Gavin again was speechless and Enoch just wanted to ride it. After 20 minutes of riding, the boys came in quite cold. Gavin told me it was the #1 Christmas ever! Everyone was so excited.

That's fun to hear the audio to go along with our silent watching from the window. We happened to walk by the window just before you guys came out and we were trying to figure out what Greg was doing when Gavin walked out. We were having so much fun watching from the window--that it was *almost* like getting it ourselves. LOL! The pure joy of Christmas. Sorry for being such peeping toms on your outside Christmas..but it was fun! LOL!

That is so funny! I am glad they are so excited, they will be so fun to use. We may have to come take a ride, I'm sure Carson will want to go for a ride!
