Santa arrived!

 

Thanks to FaceTime, James got to watch the boys open their presents.

 

Macen was beyond happy he got Skylanders SwapForce.

 

Showing dad his Hexbug set.

 

This is Maddox's excited face, lol. We have been very busy for the past week and his naps/sleep has been compromised. It took him several hours to wake up Christmas morning. Ironically, Hexbugs is what he asked Santa for.

 

 

 Lots of Skylanders for his new game.

 

He's showing some excitement.

 

He loves his new train set.

Santa had a box of Angry Birds and Minion things for them to share.

 

Opening presents must have been exhausting because he found the nearest seat and it happen to be right in front of dad, lol. The boys had a great Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

 

Someone is done getting his picture taken.

They love their Santa hats Jingles brought them. Macen has been wearing his the past couple of days. He has went to Wal Mart in it and is currently sleeping with it on.

 

Making Cookies for Santa

 

They were all about helping with the cookies. And they even kept the sprinkles under control this year :)

 

Cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

Opening Presents from Each Other

Jingles was Busy

 

He decorated the milk jug

 

He was captured by the soldiers

 

He played tic tac toe with Papa Smurf.

 

He made Santas nice list.

 

He built snowmen in the freezer.

 

A Union Station and Crown Center Christmas

We picked a perfectly warm day to see the Holiday Train at Union Station yesterday.

 

 

We got to tour 3 of the cars and one of them had train displays. Maddox was in awe.

 

The other cars were decorated up.

 

Such a great experience for the boys.

 

They rode the train inside Union Station

 

Macen seems to be enjoying his sleigh ride, lol.

 

The Kansas City skyline

The gingerbread village at Crown Center. Once again, Maddox was in awe of the trains going in and around the gingerbread houses.

Christmas Projects

 

Mistletoes

The boys with Santa through the years.

Gingerbread house

Jingles brought us decorations for the gingerbread house and cones for trees.

 

 

The boys preferred decorating the trees than the house. But they had fun placing the candies on the house, even Maddox helped this time.

 

Both of them insisted on a blue house. Looks pretty bright, lol.
