The boys started the day by playing a rather rambunctious game of Hungry, Hungry Hippos,
while the princesses opted for a quieter, more intellectual and mind stimulating game of Mancala.
It was an absolutely gorgeous day so there was a lot of playing outside as well. All of this while Joanie and I were slaving away in the kitchen...
An informal tea party
The boys fried the turkey this year - much to my dismay, but I roasted the turkey the last two years, so it was time to give in. David did a fabulous job and it was delicious!! In the past one thing or another has gone wrong and I've never really cared for a fried turkey, but I think I'll let him try it again after this go around. 
Some quality snuggle time with Uncle Dana.
A couple of tuckered out dudes!The next morning Joanie and I got up really early and hit Target and did some bargain shopping - along with half of the town! I did get a great deal on my Christmas present though: a Dyson absolute animal vacuum!!! I was so excited to get one and opened it as soon as we got home - which really upset everyone since I got to open my gift and play with it before anyone else did.
But we did eventually get to everyone else's gifts...
Tristan was so excited about his pistols he got!
Our little princess just loves unicorns
Emmy got some Ariel stuff and her own Lego's to play with
Did I mention he liked his pistols?
Chad was pretty thrilled with his Duck Hunter game too
