A few days before Christmas, Santa made a visit to our house. The boys couldn't believe Santa would stop just to see us! Santa told us the secret of Santa's helpers and brought the boys each a little gift. Of course, Ben slept through the whole event. I'm not sure he would have appreciated our bearded guest, though.
We love our tradition of opening Christmas jammies on Christmas Eve. It tickled me to see how excited the boys got over a new pair of pajamas!
Daniel got his beloved Thomas legos (thankfully Santa got the message the week before Christmas that Mickey Mouse legos were no longer cool and only Thomas ones would do). He was also surprised with an awesome scooter so he can ride around just like his brother.
James was very satisfied with his haul. Santa came through with some great new Hot Wheels stunt sets and a surprise set of golf clubs. James can't wait to take lessons this Spring! 
Ben was oblivious to all the commotion, sleeping soundly until 9 am. But I am sure if he could talk he would have told us how excited he was to see the crib aquarium that Santa left him. And what baby wouldn't be thrilled with lotion, wipes, and new socks???As much as we loved opening gifts and seeing all of the things Santa delivered, the real joy of Christmas was being surrounded by family and watching our three healthy, happy little boys experience the joy of the season. We are so very blessed in many ways. We are grateful for the Gospel and the great gift of our Savior. We are thankful for wonderful friends and family...including all of you!

Looks like you had a great Christmas! Good Luck on your surgery and we'll be checking in on you from time to time.
How cute! It is funny to see another house all full of BOY toys. At least we can look back and laugh about it together.
