feliz navidad

Christmas morning began with Owen running into our room, ready to head out to the living room to check if Santa left anything for him. First we had to get Ben, Grandpa, and some coffee. The kids must have been good this year since they had both had full stockings and a pile of goodies. Ben's favorite toys are a tie between all the farm animals he received from Santa and family, his new books, and the paper cups he found in the cabinet. That guy is easy to please.

Owen loves the new Wii (as do mom and dad), his marble track, a Matchbox aircraft carrier, Legos, a magic set... and a bunch of other fun toys from Santa and family. Needless to say, we will have a busy week ahead of us!

Owen and Grandpa practiced some magic tricks, and he performed a great show for us, that I got to tape using my new camcorder from Richard.

While Richard assembled toys and tried to control the chaos, I cooked Beef Burgundy, and we all enjoyed a Christmas dinner together. We had a wonderful day, missing our family on the East coast and in Chicago, and thankful for all of our blessings.
