We had a great time with the Baxter's celebrating Christmas tonight. After munching on some yummy appetizer foods, we were ready to open presents. The boys loved handing each of the gifts out to everyone and collecting their own piles. When Aiden opened his gifts, he went for speed, one right after the other and he looked at the toys in detail last. Ty wanted to open each one and play with it; we had to remind him that he had more to open. The boys each got a Nerf gun, flashlight, headlight, slippers, put together/take apart vehicle, and RC car. Aiden also got a video camera, and Ty got a talking shapes/colors Elmo. Nana, Papa and their Aunts and Uncles were very generous. We all watched the boys open their gifts before opening our own. Seeing their faces light up was so much fun! Then the boys wanted to shoot their Nerf guns (which were surprisingly powerful) in the bedroom (where nobody could be injured). Mark and Layla were passed around and the size difference was very apparent (Mark being a lot heavier). We are so blessed to be a part of this family and to be able to celebrate Christmas together.
