Christmas morning 2006 was a blast. The best gift of all was that the kids decided to sleep until 10 a.m. ;-) That, after being up VERY VERY late the night before, was a great gift.
The kids made out like bandits. Bandits actually doesn't even really fully describe how they made out. They truly made the leap from overprivileged to utterly ridiculous that morning. Special thanks to Santa and our very generous family and friends for lifting their toy inventory to the stratosphere.
So, after all was said and done, and the gifts were opened and painfully assembled utilizing various tools and a few choice words of frustration, this is the toy The Boy decides he MUST play with . . .
Shocked? No. I was not even remotely surprised. Amused? Yes, of course. Family legend states that my sister and I did something similar on Christmas morning many moons ago . . .
