We started Christmas morning by opening our stockings upstairs. Gavin, Enoch and Guard were very happy with their stockings. Gavin really liked his Dr. Who t-shirt and Scout approved swim suit for Jamboree, Enoch was fascinated with his telescope ring and Guard liked his books and toothbrush. Kate was so sick she stayed in bed and Greg took her stocking to her. She thought her stickers with her picture and Coal's picture on them were very fun.
Poor Kate! She perked up enough to ride the roller coaster and that wore her out.
We then opened family gifts and presents from Mom and Dad.
Kate got a huge play-doh set with homemade glitter play-doh, cookie cutters, molds, rolling pins and a whole slew of fun things. She also received some fun games.
Enoch was ready to try out his remote control car as soon as he opened it. He also got a fun helicopter to use with his Lego alien space ships.
Gavin had to search for his present. We hid it and he found it only after it rang. He also got two pairs of shoes (because when your feet are as big as Gavins, shoes are a gift).
Guard opened his presents a bit later after he woke up from his nap. He got a baby remote control car (the baby shakes the rattle/controller and it makes the car go). He also got some fun books (we had these board books in the tiny version with Gavin was little and all the kids loved them. After Kate, we finally threw them away because they were falling apart. When I saw the huge version at Costco, I knew we had to get them).
Uncle Jarom got some fun DVDs and reusable bags (and sitting in his uber cool blow-up Star Trek Captain's chair we got him for his birthday).
I was so excited to open my necklace Greg ordered me from Etsy. It has all the kid's names on it and I love it. Greg got a wax jacket, which he has wanted since he returned home from his mission.
We had a great time opening presents and the kids were very happy with what they received. But...the fun wasn't over yet!
