I mentioned before that the guys couldn't wait till Christmas to open gifts, so since Todo had two days that he delivered early and got home early, we decided to have our Christmas one of those days.  On Friday the 22nd we opened gifts.  First Todo Read the Christmas story from the Egermeier's Bible Story Book,

then I did the Usborne Advent book with the boys. 

 I know it's suppose to be spread out over a few weeks, but I just don't have a place to keep a little cardboard nativity set up for weeks.  So we read the book and set up the pieces!  They loved it!

Then we opened gifts.  Berylac was totally thrilled with his Leap Pad

and Madagascar book! 

 And Olo was exstatic about his Leap Frog Phonics train set! 

And "Lets Go Fishin' " game!

They both loved both things and they share them really good!  I'm so proud of them!  Maybe there is hope!

Then we had potato soup for lunch and tore into the gingerbread house we made earlier this week!  That was a yummy treat!  I've NEVER made a Gingerbread house before!
