Of course, I woke up first n Christmas morning. Pax was next and then Gavin and Vivian were up a few minutes later. Wes and I got everything ready downstairs, while the kiddos distracted themselves with the iPad upstairs.
This year, we got each twin a scooter and Pax got a motorized four wheeler (he must have asked for a "four wee-wer" for the last 6 months). They also each got more new pajamas, a flashlight, a book, a pack of silly socks, and a wearable blanket. Vivian got a few craft projects, new colorful pens, and a new notebook. Gavin got a model airplane to put together with Daddy, a large wooden sword, a bungee hook thingy, a crazy dinosaur toy, and a Connect Four game. Paxton got a Caillou puzzle, a crazy dinosaur toy, and a foam sword and shield set. And of course, everyone got some candy in their stockings.
We took a family pic and then it was time to open presents!
It's a bit of an understatement to say that they liked the scooters and four wheeler. The twins must have thanked us for their presents 15 times each (which is new... and really nice!). We ate French toast and strawberries for breakfast and then spent the rest of the day relaxing, making Shrinky-Dinks, scooting around the house (living room, kitchen, dining room, living room, kitchen, dining room, etc.), building the model airplane, coloring Vivian's hair with her new hair chalk pens,
Around 6pm, the kiddos decided that they wanted to turn all of the lights out (except the Christmas tree) and scoot/ride around the house using their new flashlights. They did this for about an hour and a half. It was hilarious.
And that was how we spent Christmas day.
