So we arrived Saturday in Omaha, barely, after 11 hours of traveling through the snow, wind and ice. We have been so busy but having a blast every day. We celebrated Liam's first birthday on Sunday with my family, took the boys and Daniel to the Children's Museum(both boys loved roaring at the larger than life dinosaurs-huge hit!) and then out for pizza on Liam's bday, cousin party, skating on the rink, haller party xmas eve, and then Santa and gifts this morning. I think both boys have been up well past 9, if not 10, every night but oh well, we are having a great time. We will exchange gifts with our family on Saturday night(delayed due to a hockey game for my dad tomorrow!!) after the big skating/hockey party tomorrow night here out back.
Christmas morning was certainly different this year from past as we both woke up early, waiting for the boys to wake up, to get them up stairs to see the presents. Liam got right into opening and playing, but most interested in Connor's doings. Connor saw his huge tractor and didn't open another present after that! He was so enthrawled with the eaten cookies, little snow footprints, filled stockings and letters Santa wrote to him and Liam that it made this Christmas one of the best ever!! Santa certainly was good to us this year.
Merry Christmas!!
