Merry Christmas! Happy Birthday Jesus!
At about 5:20 this morning we see light peeking out from the living room. Andy went to check and found Micah laying on the couch looking at the Christmas tree (or rather at the presents under the tree) with a big smile plastered to his face. I came out there and Micah was so very, very, excited. I wish I could bottle up the moment and relive it with him. I remember that feeling as a child and it's wonderful! It's even better when you get to experience it through the eyes of your child! We found out he had been up since 4:30. I asked why he didn't wake us up and he said he didn't know. Funny kid. We ended up waking the rest of the crew (Gabe woke up on his own when he heard all the commotion) and the unwrapping began!
Micah finally peeked in his stocking (after only an hour of being awake) and saw DSi accessories. "MOM! It says 'DSi'!!! I bet Santa got me one!!!!" I went to get my camera and caught him running around in excitement.
DSi's!!! Score!
Nate giving Gabe candy from his stocking. Nate is very caring with Gabe, often sharing and making sure he isn't left out of anything. ♥
DSi cases!

A computer and Toy Story 3!
Hide and Seek Bunny!
Sleeping bags!
Later Grandpa and Grandma O along with uncle Adam came over. Micah and Grandma are doing some bowling on Wii. You can kinda see uncle Adam in the background on the couch. He's busy resting.
Papa Murphy's pizza for dinner - yum!
I think someone is a little tired. Up a little early, perhaps?
Nate beating up on Grandpa O
The kids got to sleep in the basement in their new sleeping bags. That was pretty exciting for them. Looks like Andy might be hogging Nate's sleeping bag and Zach's DSi here...
Andy, Micah, Zach and I played a LOT of mine and Andy's new Wii game - Mario Brothers. What fun! It's great that we can all 4 play at once! I also think all 4 of us may have fallen asleep tonight with a Wii remote in our hands...
What a great day. I am truly blessed beyond measure. Thank you Lord for all you have given me!
