Christmas in January!

It seems like some things around here never end lately. The cold, the snow, and Christmas! Today we celebrated Christmas with Frank's family. After a quick breakfast, it was just like Christmas morning. The kids were so excited to have more gifts to open up that they demanded we do it right away! (You know how those kids are!) When they saw what Santa dropped at our house for them, they were all very forgiving of him for making such a mistake!

Tyler had to survey his most recent "loot" pile. He had no problem digging right into the gifts that Grandma and Papa Genovese, Aunt Laurette and Uncle Jim, Conor, and Skylar, and some of Frank's aunts and uncles had sent from New York! It seems that Santa made quite a few mistakes Christmas night ;-) !

Sklyar waiting so patiently to get green light to rip right in! Santa dropped off Hannah Montana cards, a swimming puppy, and a personalized duffel bag all for her at our house!
Conor was super excited to open up his gifts as well, Santa left him a duffel bag, Star Wars Legos, and a Power Ranger (green, just like on his list!)!
Grandma and Papa got Tyler a new scooter for Christmas. Now we just have to wait for the ice and snow to melt. I wonder when that will be?
Tyler opening up his Hess truck from Poppy Fagan. He was so excited to get this! As soon as he opened it he said "Just what I always wanted!" Who knew that the best gift of the year would be purchased at a gas station?
Another top notch gift-- an Islanders backpack for school!
After the kids were done opening their gifts, it was time for Grandma and Papa to open theirs. Lucky for them, Tyler and Skylar were not too tired to lend them a hand as well! At Thanksgiving, we took a secret picture of the 7 of us. Lucky for us, not one child said anything! They managed to keep the secret for almost 2 months! Good job, guys!
Tyler and Conor managed to find a little bit of space to play with Tyler's new dragon play set! Thanks everyone for the thoughtful, wonderful gifts!
