The boys were super excited, when we got home from church on Christmas Eve, to find that Santa had sent them each a video telling both boys that they had made the "nice" list this year! Landon never had a doubt that he would be on that list, but Logan was a little nervous! :) So, with the excitement of Santa coming, the boys finally hit the hay at 11:00 PM. They woke up on Christmas morning, delighted that Santa had brought them the pogo sticks and remote-controlled helicopters they had been hoping for, plus a few surprises!! They were also super excited about the real bows and arrows that Jeff and I got for them this year! They can't wait to get out and shoot them with Jeff and Grandpa Mick! So, while both boys definitely had plenty of naughty moments this year, they are, overall, very sweet and nice boys, and well-deserving of all their gifts! Those two boys, are all the "gift" Jeff and I need each Christmas! Christmas is also the time of year that we start anticipating the bitter-sweet day of Brooke's birthday (New Year's Eve), and though it hurts every year to not be able to celebrate with her on this earth with us, I am so thankful for the ONE who died for us so that those of us who believe in Him may have eternal life in Heaven. I find peace in knowing that we will see our angel again someday! Thank you, Lord, for our gifts! Happy Birthday, Jesus!

Seeing all that Santa left for them!
Landon giving the pogo stick a try...not as easy as he thought it would be!
Logan doesn't do too bad on the pogo stick!
Logan, so excited for his new bow!
Landon can't wait to get out and shoot his bow!
New dart board! Hopefully they can mostly hit the board and not the poor wall, but I think I know that that would be wishful thinking on my part! :)
