Christmas at Great Daddy's today!!!

Charlie was very excited to have Emerson there and he wanted to hold her hand and walk around everywhere.

Lucy liked having Emerson there to play too.

 Who knows what these two Latimers are talking about!

Alex, wearing Uncle Day Day's Dirty Santa gift

Cute, right? Until he turned it on and made it move forward . . .I got him down very quickly! A two year old running around is crazy enough!!

More play time

Uncle Lattie and his Dirty Santa gift - isn't he pretty?? ;)

December 25th (Part 2)

Whew! What a day!! We had so much fun with all our Christmas from Santa. After nap time, we loaded up the car and headed over to Grammy and Poppa's house for more Christmas fun.

Lucy, before we left 

I don't think we were at Grammy and Poppa's house for more than 10 minutes before we were ready to tear into presents. And tear into them these kids did!!

All the kids got a Belkie bear which they loved, but Alex was especially fond of his. As you can tell in this picture, he's wearing a different shirt than before. Both Charlie and Alex opened a new minion shirt from Aunt Nae and immediately stripped off their Christmas shirts in favor of minions. :)

Grammy and Poppa got the boys a raceway for cars. After distracting them so it could be put together, they were so excited when they could finally play with it!

Lucy got a Frozen version of Trouble. She beat Grammy!

Poppa always has stuff to watch on the Ipad!

We sat for a minute to take a break and read . . .

Lucy got a Royal Prep Academy which she LOVES!! It will provide a lot of entertainment for her. She already has Sofia's castle and with her other castles and houses, she can have a whole village of fun!

We tried to get a picture of Lucy and Uncle Day Day . . .

At first he didn't want to be very cooperative . . .

But he finally gave a nice smile . . .

Flying with Poppa . . .

Me and my crazy brothers . . . life is never boring with these guys around!!!

We had a delicious meal and lots of fun together. Now everyone is home and fast asleep while the big kids watch a movie. What a great Christmas day - on to more fun at Great Daddy's tomorrow!!

Merry Christmas to everyone from the Flack family!! Here are photos from our morning . ..

Santa's offerings for the boys (At this age, we aren't trying to designate these gifts for one specifically since they play with everything together anyway. We just try to get two of the little things and learn to share the big things!)

Lucy's gifts from Santa

Lucy got up just before 7:00. 

It was about 7:15 when the boys came in. Alex was excited about the train table!

The first things Charlie wanted to do was see all the different things his minion said.

(Don't be fooled - the playing nicely together lasted for maybe 15 minutes . . . )

We played and then had a nice breakfast together around 8:30.

I decided to push my luck and see if I could get a decent picture of the kids in front of the tree together.

The boys were not interested . . . 

We tried to get them to sit by saying that we were going to read books.

That worked for about 30 seconds before they were off again . . . 

It's now 11:30 and we have eaten our lunch and are trying to get the boys to take a little nap. They really could use it!! We'll head over to Grammy and Poppa's when they get up for more Christmas fun!
