Christmas Eve turns into Christmas morning happiness

Cookies are made, milk and carrots are out and now it time for Twas the Night Before Christmas read every year by Daddy. It's a special time for all the boys in our family. This year Grandpa even got to be a part of it. Yes, they look like loving brothers but I probably broke them up from fighting or wrestling just to take the photo.
I sure love Christmas our my boys.
They were very excited to know Santa would soon be coming by again.
Austin is growing so much and is very talkative these days. He loves to tell stories and he never sits still.
Colby is probably the calmer of the two if three year olds can be considered calm. He loves to color and draw and he wants his projects to be perfect. Gee, guess he gets that honestly.
Special time with Daddy and even more special because we had not seen him in over 3 months.
Austin wanted to turn the pages and help read.
I believe Austin was explaining his interpretation of the book

Mommy did manage a lil cuddle time before the boys headed off to bed.
Colby decided laying on Mommy was more comfortable.

Austin wanted it read over and over again so Mommy read it once.
Wow, looks like Santa made it by for Colby and Austin
They were very excited to see their computers and teddy bears
I do believe they were searching for the Internet or skype
Colby automatically claimed the camel from Iraq
There is a new sheriff in town so you better watch out!
yeah, I'm a cowboy...now where is my horse?
Look at the new addition to our family...looks a lot like Daddy

The boys with their Santa sacks. These sacks are usually filled with items that are too hard to wrap.
I can't believe I got candy, I know it's only 6:00 am but can I have some.
What is this? Oh man it a Mack Truck from Grandpa.
We had an awesome Christmas. It was amazing to watch it through the eyes of 3 year olds and I am so glad Pat made it home to share in the memories. We look forward to next year and the memories we'll create. It was hard to let Grandpa leave as we really enjoyed having him in Utah for a few days. The boys still ask when Grandpa is coming back. I think he realized just how busy twin boys keep me. I know he has probably forgotten those days since it's been 35 years since he had twin 3 year olds.
