Christmas - Umscheid Side

Later in the day on Christmas day, we ventured over to my parents' house to celebrate the holiday with them and my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew, Eli!  We ate entirely too much food, watched the three boys enjoy some play time together, and then the present opening began!  Wow!  We were all a little spoiled this year!  And Santa dropped gifts off at their house for us all, too!  The boys got too many presents for me to list, but they seemed most excited about the new desks and chairs that my parents got for them for their bedrooms!  Since the desks were too big to fit under the tree, my mom wrapped the picture off the boxes that the desks came in for the boys to unwrap.  When Logan opened his, he couldn't really figure out why he had this picture of a desk, but he was very polite and said that he loved it!  We asked him if he would like to hang that picture on his wall in his bedroom, and he nicely said "Sure!"  After a good laugh, we finally told him that he was actually getting what was in that picture, and then he and his brother were both genuinely excited!  LOL!  After opening many presents and checking out all of their new "things," the boys (and Jeff and I, too) were exhausted!  We came home and found homes for all our new belongings, the boys sat at their new desks and drew some pictures, and then it wasn't long before they zonked out!  We enjoyed our holiday time with both sides of our families this year, but we sure missed out on our Christmas with Grandpa Bob and Grandma Bessie.  :(  They were with us in spirit though, and got to celebrate Jesus' birthday with Him this year!  Merry CHRISTmas to all, and to all a good night!
Excited for another Christmas!

Eli joined the fun!

Sitting so nicely for a picture for Aunt Beth!

The kid's table

A new case for his bow!

Now they both have bow cases for their new bows!

Logan's picture of his desk...he thought this was artwork to hang on his wall, so he pretended to like it!  He didn't know he was actually getting the desk that's in the picture!

Landon also said, "I can put this on my wall by my toy box, Mom!"  He is happier to have the real desk, too!

There are the real deals!

His first model vehicle to build!

Hawkeye name plates!

This looks great on his new desk!

The nerf gun that Landon has been wanting ever since Logan got one for his birthday!  Thanks, Uncle Ben, Aunt Alyssa, and Eli!

The cool snowman Mom got from my brother and his family!
