Christmas day

I never capitalize the titles, but Christmas has to be! What fun was had today. We surprised Joe and Sam with an xbox360, and Sam said, "holy crap, holy crap!", language which is definitely NOT encouraged around here.....but he was SO excited. Jon just loved opening his garbage truck, and steering wheel, and trains and batman umbrella, and penguin underwear....he is pretty busy today. Everything is out of package, and being played with. Charlotte appreciated her dolly in a car seat the most. In fact, she didn't even open all her things yet. Emily, Abigail, Mariel, and Molly got digital cameras. Em hasn't opened hers yet though, because she just arrived home from work (nurse in on the trauma floor of a very big hostpital).....we wanted to wait to open things, but 4:30 in the afternoon is just torture for kids....so Em has gifts for them, and we'll have a second Christmas celebration soon....I got a nice watch from Paul, and an unbreakable thermos. (Kids have broken two previously)......well, time for second Christmas.......
