Merry Christmas, part 1

Jon and I celebrated Christmas with the kids this morning. I think we've started a new tradition by having a small family Christmas before heading to the grandparents houses. We've added a few new traditions, but are keeping the old ones too. Just like Pap does, Jon read The Night Before Christmas to the boys last night:
We woke up this morning to a tree full of presents:
Then the fun began. Wrapping paper went flying, Ben was so excited to see all the Cars themed stuff he got. I don't think Sam could keep up. Both boys got a suitcase for all of our adventures:
Its good being the big brother. Even when its not your present, it somehow becomes yours!
Mom and dad got good stuff too.
Sam being cute...nothing new.
Since we'll be traveling for the next few days, we finished our Jesse tree a couple days early. I think it was a hit.
I had to throw in a non Christmas picture. We rearranged the living room for the tree. Ben and Sam now have a little space between the furniture that Ben calls the airplane. Dad was able to sneak a picture during some brotherly airplane time.
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you all! I just love the picture of the boys playing in their airplane.
