Hard to believe Christmas has come & gone so quickly! The gifts were plenty, but smaller in size and larger in price! The boys pretended to "believe", but we know they don't. They still get so excited and look under the tree every day for new presents and keep count as to how many each one has. Christmas Eve was got a couple of inches of snow. We still went to Macaroni Grill for our traditional Christmas Eve dinner and then ventured out again for the 10 p.m. candlelight service. The roads were very icy going to church. Charlie ushered and Alex was acolyte. There were about 100 people there--we were surprised so many got out. The boys woke us up at 4:15 a.m. to do their gifts, but we said "go back to bed". That was a little too early, but we finally got up around 5:30. Oklahoma had about 14" of snow, so we couldn't go to Chandler under the following day. We spent Christmas day in our pj's enjoying each other and playing with our new goodies. Alex got a new bike, custom designed nike shox, impression phone, madden 10, cologne, clothes, itunes. Joey got an Acer, impression phone, cologne, clothes, UA shoes, movie, tony hawk ps3 game. Ben got a Flip, DSi, phone, games, shoes, pjs. Charlie got riding boots, movies, gift card for new clothes, coin counter, clothes. Lisa got Williams-Sonoma cheese grater, measuring cups & spoons that the boys picked out for her :-), clothes, jewelry, new electric skillet (luv it!).
