This year we spent Christmas at home and it was great! The boys made cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve and spread reindeer food on the lawn before bed. The next morning we woke up around 7:30 to see what Santa had left. Tate had been asking for an Easy Bake Oven so Santa left that for him. He was so excited! Grant doesn't say much so Santa thought he might like a Clippo table. He really liked it. The big hit was a racecar track I found on sale that both kids really enjoy. I didn't realize just how big it was but they both love it.David's family came over for lunch later in the day and it was good to see all of them. Nana and Babo gave Tate a camo jumpsuit and they gave Grant a toolbench. The next day we went to Weatherford and had Christmas there. The boys both got lots of fun stuff there, too. Tate got some new boots and a camera and Grant got a car launcher and some puzzles. Aunt Carol and Uncle Jimmy got Tate a Build-a-Bear gift card and he is so excited to go use it! I think we will do that next week when the mall crowds have lessened a bit. We came home on Sunday morning because David's parents were on their way to MDAnderson and his grandpa from Colorado was in town. He stayed with us until Monday afternoon and we took him to the airport. It is always so good to see him and he loves to watch the boys play. He is 87 years old but acts like he is 47! Overall, it was a great holiday!
