Merry Christmas!!

We woke up Christmas morning at 6 am to find the power was off...expected to be back on by 11 am. It had been pretty windy all night long but it hadn't started to snow yet. Colton didn't even get dressed, he darted downstairs in his underwear to see if Santa had come. We all sat by the fire trying to keep warm while we opened gifts by the light of the fire. Colton was so excited to see that Santa had left him a laptop. He also got a HUGE Nerf gun, a cd and a few gift cards. Garrett did the same thing Christmas morning...he opened up his first present and just wanted to play with that toy. He didn't care about the other presents. It started snowing/blowing pretty good about 8:30-and the power finally came on about 9:30. We went over to Justin's parents for breakfast and opened up some gifts. My parents stopped by that afternoon to see what the boys had gotten.
Because it was so dark when the boys opened their presents...I didn't get any pictures til we got to Justin's parents house.

We were very lucky to not be included in the power outage...it will always be a Christmas you will remember though.
