Christmas morning started off right around 7:30. I woke up and quickly got up and dressed and ran downstairs to get the charged cameras. By the time I got back upstairs, I was hearing little footsteps of Decker's heading out to the living room. I wanted to record him coming down the hall....I slept in too late. :)
All of our stockings were laid own on the counter. I made two new ones this year. One for Grandma Wood and one for Keppi...and we found a Scooby Doo stocking at a garage sale this summer. We filled it with Scooby Doo fruit snacks. The boys loved this! I made these Red Charger plates for our families. "Wise men still seek Him"
The morning spread...we even hung up our Grinch lights on the mantle...
Decker and Cody were checking out the plate of cookies we put out for Santa... ALL GONE!
We had to go wake Cody up...he's still a little tired. ;)
Don't you love his BED HEAD???
Grandma is helping Cody go through his stocking.
Decker got a little Avenger's notebook. He asked for Avenger "stuff"...Santa came through for him. He must have been on the NICE list this year. ;)

Decker got into the unwrapping of gifts. :)
Decker is laying out all his new eReader books with Cody's Thomas eReader books.
Here's a red Doggy blanket Keppi gave to Cody. Decker got a green Frog blanket too.
The Beast from Beauty and the Beast. His Beast head comes off and underneath is the Prince Head. Cody says the Beast is SCARY.
Cody got a little Disney set of figurines. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Pluto, Goofy, Clairabell and her dog and another character...I'm not sure what his name is...maybe Bruno??? Anyone know??
I put a book together for Mike for Christmas, chronicling our year that we dated before we got married. I included journal entries that I wrote back then...He sat there and read and read...brought him to tears. ;)
And of course, the Box became a favorite play toy of the morning. ;)
Grandma got these cute stuffed dogs for the boys. Cody then stuffed him into these McDonald happy meal boxes. Perfect fit!
For Breakfast, we had bacon, waffles, eggs, hashbrowns and juice. Cody was my little helper...

Keppi and me did the rest...Thank you Chef mommy and Chef Keppi
Decker's excited about 20.00 from Grandma and Grandpa. He ended up buying an Avenger's book at Costco in February and saved the rest.
Keppi and Cody enjoying cuddle/story time together.
Decker got these green Toy Story LEGOS...Grandma very patiently worked with him putting them together.
