These two big brothers were so excited for Santa to come, that we could hardly get them to bed. But we let them know that Santa will skip our house if they weren't asleep when he flew above our house. And then we told them we could hear sleigh bells ringing. They flew to bed.
Once asleep, Das and I started to help the elves out and set things up. Das couldn't contain himself, so we tested a few things out before going to bed......around 2 AM. The boys were then up around 7.
They had a great morning. Their big gift was the WII. They also got some razor scooters, mario kart, mario brothers, indiana jones, star wars, a few ds games, Chicago Bears shirts and pants, and books.
Das received some pants, a few WII games(Cabella's game hunter, wipeout, and Zelda), a picture of his dad, the movie "Inception", tie, nose hair trimmer. He bought me a boppy, foot massager, fudge, a gift card to Rue21, gift card to Leisures Hair Salon. But our big gift was family pictures that turned out so wonderful! We then had Das's brothers out for breakfast. Rama and Alma hung out with us all morning and afternoon. My parents stopped by right before we left for Mirabia's. It was so fun for them to see our Christmas. They give us money each year for Christmas which had helped us to pay for a lot of our gifts. We are so grateful to them!
At Mirabai's we ate some really great food and then had our gift exchange. Melissa always sets this up so nicely. We bought for Mark, Scott, Aunt Kay, and Alma this year. I always love the gift exchange. And Mira on top of that gave us a cute family home evening chart and a Jettie hanging sign. What a wonderful year it has been. It came and went so quickly though. We wish we could stop time. Love you all and to all a good night!
