Here is the before picture. Santa and mommy didn't bother wrapping all of the gifts! I did put on bows though!
Payton has no idea what is going on! She loves the excitement in the air though.
The boys slept in this morning until about 8:30AM and then were ready to go! They came downstairs this morning in their matching Buzz Lightyear Christmas pajamas and tore open their presents. I love this annual picture of the boys coming downstairs and seeing the presents for the first time. Aidan is pointing to his new scooter Santa brought him! 
Aidan went right over to his scooter and rode it down the hallway. I am actually quite surprised of the coordination he has on it.

Carson was a little overwhelmed at first. He just kept walking around the tree, not quite sure where to start.
Daddy, Santa ate all of my cookies! Can I eat the crumbs? 
Carson in front of his new "snuggle chair". Jason has a lounge chair that he sits in most of the time. Carson has recently started to take "daddy's chair". We thought he was ready for his own and when we found a Toy Story themed chair, it was a must! Notice the chair, PJ's and Buzz lightyear doll all match. Carson loves Toy Story right now!!
I love how excited the boys get opening presents. They are very appreciative and really inspect things over. They don't just go on to grab the next one. Aidan loves Christmas!! He got everything on his Santa list this year. (Scooter, art projects and Legos)
new CD's and activities/projects from Grandma and Grandpa Geis. Grandma knows how much the boys like listening to music, especially when it is time to go to bed. It helps them wind down.
Carson loves his new Elmo "CD" player. 
The boys did well this year. Aidan received a scooter, art projects and Legos from Santa. Carson got his Buzz and Thomas items from his Santa letter. It was a Toy Story Christmas this year! Carson got a new Toy Story fold out kids couch, Buzz, Woody, Slinky (the dog), Army Men (from Toy Story), new pj's, new CD's (he loves music) remote control car and a DVD. Aidan got some games, new Wall-E game for his V-Motion, DVD's, Bakugan's, a kids's Snuggie (Car's themed) and new pjs. They both got new Art Easels from Grandma and Grandpa Geis along with paint, markers and paper.
We bought the boys Buzz Lightyear gloves. They light up and have various saying when you raise your hand in the sky just like Buzz!

After present opening, we had the boys' favorite, Monkey Bread for breakfast. We watched one of their new DVD's (Night of the Museum 2) and relaxed a little.
Due to the storm the days before Christmas, Jason's grandparents road leading to their house was not driveable, we are hosting Christmas dinner today. We put the turkey in the oven and now we wait the several hours for it to cook!

They boys are happily playing with their new toys and watching another new DVD, Scooby Doo! Jason is enjoying the 24 hours of The Christmas Story on TV! What a great day so far!
Later in the evening:
This was the table as we were getting ready to sit down for dinner.
Jason carving the turkey. 2 years in a row Christmas Day has been at our house. Watch out, we might figure out what we are doing! I think Jason and I make a good hosting team. It was a nice relaxing day complete with lots of eating and drinking. Round 2 for presents:

The boys opened more presents from Grandma and Grandpa Grey and got some great presents.
Carson got a new "David" book. He loves all the No David! books. He has them all memorized.

Carson also got some new clothes, snow boots, blocks, and PlayDoh.
Aidan got his Leap Frog tag reading system he has been wanting along with a new pair of snow pants and new clothes. He also got a new microscope to look at bugs a little closer!
The boys will be kept busy for a long time playing with the new toys! I love that Aidan gets just as excited for a new sweater as he does for new Bakugans. Both boys were very appreciative and had a great Christmas!
