Christmas Day!

I am going to start with Christmas Eve after we got back to my parents house from the Plumb Christmas.  Carson was a tired little boy so I was going to get him ready for bed when he disappeared with his Aunt Christin!  I guess Carson decided that he wanted to open a present. . . so Aunt Christin gave in. 

What is it Carson. . .

 Carson's very own VACUUUUUUUUUUUUM!  He is obsessed with vacuums so what a perfect gift!  He absolutely loved it!

 Aunt Christin wanted to give him a hug before he went to bed. . he was NOT letting go of his vacuum!  We literally had to pry it out of his hands and hide it so he could go to bed!

We woke up Christmas morning at my parents house. We took it easy and had brunch about 10. . .it was delicious! My mom made an egg bake and cooked a ham.  We toasted to a happy and healthy 2011. . what a wonderful way to start the day! Carson was done eating and I made the mistake of asking him if he wanted to open presents in a little while. Into the living room he ran saying presents and pointing. We then decided we should all be done so we could let the fun begin! We took our time opening gifts and Carson was a HUGE helper! We all got so many wonderful gifts. . . we are all spoiled! My grandparents stopped by for a little while after gift opening to say Merry Christmas.  Love them!

We then spent the afternoon watching a movie while Carson napped.

Christmas evening we headed to Gabe's parents house to start the fun all over again. Everyone was able to make it back so it was a full house! We had a wonderful meal and then it was present time again. And again. . .we were spoiled with gifts and Carson was very much entertained at all the crazy. . noisy. . gifts his uncles gave him.
