Happy Christmas, everyone! We've had a great day here in Ohio. We didn't travel, mostly because this might be our last year here, and we wanted to spend it in our home. We slept in until nine, I got up and walked Harley, and when I got back, we were ready to dive into the loot. Bode was happy to see the cookies he had left for Santa Claus were eaten (burp), and the milk drained. His stocking was full of gifts, and there were some big presents present that weren't there when he had gone to bed.
We received quite the hall of goods. Below is a shot of most of the presents prior to opening them. Note Bode's huge pile in front of the fireplace.
We do the opening of gifts in the living room. We have a Christmas tree, but it is in the sun-room, and in December, it is not the warmest place in the house. We proceeded to open the gifts with reckless abandon, only stopping briefly to take pictures and go potty (which was usually Bode, but not always). Here's a shot of me modeling my new shades and also trying to keep Harley from tearing into the gifts.
Here's a picture of Mommy opening her new digital camera. You should expect a noticeable improvement in the picture quality from this point on.
Here's a video of Bode opening his excavator. I've no idea why the audio is so bad.
Finally, here is a picture of the fleet of trucks that now occupies our home. We may have to get a third garage.
We had a wonderful Christmas. We spent most of today, playing with our toys. I spent a good two hours putting together a 200-part marble maze. It was time consuming, but worth it (what else was I going to do--nap?). We're off tomorrow, so we're sure to play some of our new Wii games or, even better, our new Xbox 360 with Kinect! Pleasant Christmas to all!
