Christmas Morning Pics

Christmas morning was unfussy. We got up around 8:30 AM and got down to business. This is a photo heavy post, so be warned.

This is the happiest I've ever seen Austin coming down the stairs. I'm pretty sure he had seen his new bike sitting beside the tree.

Every boy needs a new bike for Christmas, even if it's the same size as his last one, just a tad bit cooler.

I think this was Austin's favorite gift. Of course it was from his Papa. After each and just about every present he'd say, "just what I always wanted...". Hilarious!

He also got a guitar, which he is teaching himself to play. Hopefully I'll have videos of that to share soon.

Present unwrapping frenzy!

One of Payton's favorite gifts, of course, from her Papa. A cool little stereo dock for the I pod she doesn't have.

I guess even little Payton needed a new digital camera for Christmas.

Who can get theirs open first?

You know, the good little presents always come wrapped inside another wrapped box. At least this is my experience (also usually weighted down with some rocks - thanks dad).

It must be good for an expression like that!

The #1 item on her list, a new I pod, it's 120 gig and Gregg and I are both jealous.

Austin also got a new MP3 player for Christmas, though his a hand-me-down from Payton.

She took very good care of her first one, that is why the upgrade was warranted. She first got this one when she was 5.

Oh to be a kid in 2008!
