Christmas Day

Christmas was pretty fantastic this year.  For starters, we were in San Diego with my family, then there is the fact that it was super low key, and that the kids are older so things (gifts, Santa, etc) is a lot more fun.  Everyone had so much fun opening gifts and playing with everything that the kids got.  Santa brought Savannah a kinect sensor for our xbox... so needless to say, most of our day was playing that.  Santa brought Ryder a little 4 wheeler that he was very excited to try out.  He hasn't quite figured out the whole steering thing so he just goes forward and runs into everything in front of him.  It will be fun to watch him test it out in our backyard when we get home.  Christmas this year was so so wonderful... getting to come home this year was the best gift I got.  

Ryder came out of the bedroom and immediately went straight for the 4 wheeler.  Savannah was so excited to see her brother get so excited.  It was pretty funny.

Each thing she pulled out of her stocking was better than the next... Santa really knew what he was doing this year.

Santa should have buried Goofy deeper in the stocking.  Once Ryder pulled Goofy out, he was done.  Nothing else in there was nearly as exciting.

Santa also brought her the princess Jasmine dress up she has been begging me for.  

He caught on to the whole present opening thing pretty quickly.  Infact, he was so good (and fast) at it that he started walking around the room just tearing open any gift he could find.  

Uncle Ry Ry hooked her up with the Hulk hands she has been eyeing since the Avengers movie came out.  I know I've said it before, but seriously... she is the absolute best mix of tomboy and girly.  Princess dress up and super hero gloves.  Perfect combo.

Everything his sister opened he had to try out.  Everything.

My favorite picture from the day.  Ryder using the toy phone he got to talk to my grandma on her remote control pretend phone.  So funny.

This is how our entire day was spent.  The kinect is AWESOME!

Boy is crazy on the 4 wheeler... clearly not intended for indoor use.
