Christmas Day 2012

I let each of the boys take a picture of one another because they LOVE to use the camera.  I think the pictures turned out pretty cute!

GG joined us for lunch  ~ Will snuggled up with her on the couch to show her his new writing toy.

Granddaddy and Grandmother joined us as well.

Our Christmas family picture ~ complete with Carl!

The boys hamming it up for the camera's self timer ~

Will showing off his silly side!

They ended the day watching a movie together in Will's room ~ Such sweet boys!

Christmas Morning 2012

Santa visited our house and the first place the boys headed was to see what he left in their stockings.

Looks like Thomas was excited to get his down ~

With Will not far behind!

Thomas was proud of his new coloring book and pen from Great Wolf lodge.

And Will liked all of his goodies, too!

The boys got flashy big wheel type bikes.  They spin around in circles and set off sparks ~ Super cool!

Lots of cool new stickers and stencils ~ the boys love to do arts and crafts!

Concentrating on the opening of gifts ~

For some reason I don't think he was too impressed with his new tennis shoes!

Thomas checking out his new card game.

Carl stood guard of the loot from the stockings!

 Thomas had to face time Paw Paw to tell him what all Santa brought to our house!

Christmas Eve 2012

On Christmas Eve we went to candlelight services with GG and Grandmother and Granddaddy.  Afterwards we went back to Grandmother and Granddaddy's house to open gifts ~ the boys had fun!

Will was excited to finally get a ukulele of his very own!

And he was also impressed with a WHOLE package of batteries!

Thomas and his guitar........

Reading the instructions to his new remote control car.

We all got a cool "Boogie Boards" from Granddaddy.  

Thomas was in a very photogenic mood so I took advantage of it!  And we were lucky to get Will to join just one picture with his grandparents!

Pre K Christmas Party

Will and his teacher Miss Little

 The kids got to make dog bone Christmas ornaments.  Will commented that we'd have to hide his from Carl!

 Decorating cookies is serious business!

Love the look on Will's face ~ he was much more interested in eating than he was in having his picture taken!

1st Grade Gingerbread Houses

Instead of having a Christmas party the 1st graders decorated gingerbread houses.  Thomas was very careful to do his very best on his house!

The finished product ~ pretty cool!

Christmas Caroling with Pre-K

Will and the rest of the Pre K and Kindergarteners at his school went to our local mall to sing Christmas Carols.  He was so cute ~ he really did a great job doing all of the motions to the songs!  Such a precious boy!
