Christmas is finally here…

Well another year has passed and we all survived the chaos of Christmas.  Gung Gung and Nana came down for a couple of days and we were all able to spend some together.  As the boys get older and everyone is working it does get harder to get everyone in the same house, much less the same room but we managed to do it to open some gifts, have some nice dinners and even watch a movie.  Although, trying to get 6 people to agree on a movie is almost impossible with this group but we finally settled on The Meg, a good sci-fi flick about a megladon shark. 😃

Each year it gets harder, but with a lot of convincing and some patience we were able to get the boys to come out to help pick up the tree again this year. This was the only night Sam didn’t have something going on and/or Alex wasn’t working.

Santa just arrived with a lot of shopping bags this year as he found them to be much faster than wrapping. 😃

The fire is ready, but we are still trying to get everyone downstairs to begin the festivities. The boys used to be the first ones up and now are the hardest to get downstairs on Christmas morning.

Mom’s new pink tool kit was a surprise hit. Nana ended up getting one the next day too.

Sam finally gets his GPS and backup camera…. now to just get it installed. Dad had to make a special rig to install it in his car, but we still need to get the Geek Squad agents to hard wire it to power so it turns on when the car starts (Alex has the same set up in his car).

Alex with one of his 3 Arsenal Gunner tops, this one and another one are part of this year’s kit, while the cotton hoodie was from the Arsenal shop and the new 1812 collection. Alex certainly can pull off the European soccer look.
