Christmas Morning 2007

It is now officially the end of Christmas day! Our gifts are all opened, we've had breakfast and dinner and now everyone has scattered to their own "place"....Ben is building with Lego's,Clay is playing "Guitar Hero", Maggie's sleeping, Ron's playing a "need for speed" game and here I am blogging! :)

We had a wonderful Christmas morning with lots of GREAT gifts! Too many to even begin to go through, but here are some highlights:

Clay - lots of AE clothes, a Rock (as in Rock and Roll!) encyclopedia, Guitar Hero III and a framed John Lennon wall art. (Eagle ornaments from Ben)

Ben - a Gamecock jersey, hats, Lego's and an iPod (a USC football and mints from Clay)

Ron - a Gamecock sweatshirt, pj bottoms, a treat set, and a manicure/pedicure (a USC iPod cover from Clay, a cocky cup and penguin oranment from Ben)

Melanie - Vera Bradley pjs and wristlet, Bella Bellara perfume and goodie basket gift set (a lion mug from Clay, lion cups, ornament and stuffed animal from Ben....no lion it was great gifts!)

Maggie - a plush blankie, snacks and teething toys (a stuffed lion from Ben and a homemade dog-food set from Clay)

Both boys loved their own personal "root beer kegs"! They thought they were hilarious!

We started the morning by telling the boys that all that was left for them was coal...Clay, of course, tasted the coal which was luckily only licorice chunks. Then they stopped to see if Santa had eaten any of his cookies and Diet Coke, read his note and found "reindeer patties" from the reindeer! We opened all of our gifts, ate our breakfast casserole and chilled out for the rest of the day.

Clay claims this is "the best Christmas we've ever had". Ben chimed in, "...because we're in Columbia!"
