Christmas Eve/Christmas Morning

Since i wasn't able to travel over Christmas Jesse and I as a family stayed in DSM. Christmas Eve I spent working since i wasn't able to get that day off. Thankfully I was able to leave a little early so I could spend more time with my family. We spent Christmas Eve attending our Church's Christmas Eve Service and then enjoyed a nice dinner before opening a couple of presents. Since Easton banked it with the presents this year...well i actually wrapped each present individually so ti looked like he got a lot of gifts...we decided to open half on Christmas Even and half on Christmas day morning.He was so excited.  I had no clue as to what Jesse was getting me. I had given him several small ideas which were good ideas but still had no clue as to what he was getting me. I ended up getting him his tux vest, my favorite cologne of all time for men and a pocket knife which was from Easton. Never even knew he wanted a pocket knife until he mentioned wanting one. He amazingly ended up getting me an IPAD...yes i said that correctly...an IPAD....at first he had me open a connector to it which i had no clue as to what it was so i was dumb founded....and then he actually brought out the present which wasn't under the tree. I was so excited...even though I think he'll get more use out of it than I will since he's constantly on the internet at night while we're watching tv. It was a great gift and an expensive gift. This Christmas was definitely an expensive one for us but a great one. I loved how excited Easton was to open his gifts. We actually had to baracaid the tree with the ottoman because all Easton wanted to do was open his gifts when it wasn't time to open them. Having the presents out around the tree definitely tempted and tested the little guy. He's at such a fun age right now. Everything was exciting to him and he loved all his gifts. I'm sure the years to come will be just as exciting since he'll be getting older and getting more excited about things.
