Jackson was finished when he saw his bus and cars. We would unwrap something, and he would say, "Open it." He just wanted everything out of the box. He got cars, Radiator Springs, a castle, books, clay, and more cars! Santa also left him a note to look on the back porch. That is where Santa left his clubhouse garage! He was really excited. Too bad it was too cold to play! Jackson was a little overwhelmed
Tim fixed a wonderful grits casserole, and we played for a little while and watched the Disney parade. We also gotto Skype with Grandma and Grandpa. The boys opened their presents from them and loved all of their new books and the bath toys.
Then we went to my parents' house. The boys were spoiled again. My mom always does too much for Christmas ( and always has). All three boys enjoyed opening their presents and looking in their stockings. My mom and dad loved the iPad that we all went in together to get them.
We went to Joyce and Ernie's for lunch. Jackson had fun playing with the kids and loved the presents he got there. We had a great time seeing everyone.
Then we headed to Greenville for dinner at Kristi's house. Both boys slept the whole way there. The boys were spoiled again. Santa came to visit. Brooks was fine until he turned around. Jackson wanted no part of it!
Even though our Christmas Day is a little hectic, I am so glad that my boys get to experience Christmas with lots of family. I love that they are growing up with lots of extended family. My mom and family made sure Christmas was always magical, and I want to do the same for the boys. I am thankful we have Skype so that we can kind of be with family in Wyoming too. I know that Tim really misses being there during the holidays.
