Christmas Day with the Smyths

We decided to spend Christmas at Ryan's parents instead of driving back to our house after the Christmas Eve festivities (those ended at 11:00 pm).  Late night, not too early morning.  The kids were worn out and did not wake up until 8 a.m. They had to check the Norad Santa tracker to see where Santa was and if he had finished his job.  He was done.  They were all so excited.
  

The tradition of lining up in the hall before going out to see the stockings and presents. Camera and video camera all ready to go to capture those first moments.  


When they first walked in they checked out the bikes and they were excited but, yes, there is a but, Jack started to look a little concerned and blurts out, "Where are my Star Wars Legos?  I asked Santa for Star Wars Legos!"  We all could barely contain ourselves.  I was laughing so hard.  

Sarah was excited to get her new favorite game.  She was so happy that Santa received her letter and he got her what she wanted.


Yeah! in a deep tone was Jack's response to his Star Wars Legos.



It is so special to be able to spend Christmas with family.  I think that is what I love most about the Christmas season.  



Awesome Bike Riders!  We did have a couple tumbles but they both just brushed it off and hopped back on there bikes and kept going.

Sarah was excited to get another bike that will last her for a while.  She learned how to shift gears.

Christmas dinner was at the Lambourne's and the kids got to jacuzzi after dinner.
