Jacob with our new hoses!

Jared and I were waiting for the boys to wake up this morning. They were up shortly after 8am and ran for their stockings. In their stockings they got light up toys, m&m's, a pez dispensers, m&m candy cane, a vehicle, twistable crayons, gum, and batteries. After stockings the boys were excited to give Daddy a code they'd purchased so he can buy minecraft on the computer. He also got his own bag of m&m's. Then the boys took turns opening their gifts. They each got a different colored roll of duck tape, Dinosaurs (Jacob got a shark), Micro charger launcher cars, a small lego set, a matchbox car.  Jacob and Adam got books (39 Clues - One False Note and Magic Tree house - Dolphins and Sharks) and True Heroes die cast vehicles. Eli got a Spider-man figher pod set and Captain Hook's hook. We also got several snow sleds. Eli got the Coast Guard lego set, Adam the fire station lego set, and Jacob got the police station. Together Jared and I got 200 feet of some water right garden hoses. I also got some silvertoe socks, and coffee from Jared. The boys spent the next several hours putting their lego sets together. Jared made some banana bread. I got to put Eli's set together which was really fun! He had fun playing with all his minifigures and sharks and other things as I got them built.  Nana and Papa came over around 2:00 to visit and share a meal with us. Nana brought rolls, turkey, stuffing, and corn to add to our meal. We had a nice visit while we enjoyed watching the boys play together with their legos. After they left Eli got in the tub and played with his new legos in there. This evening we had popcorn, pop and ice cream while we watched Polar Express.
