Christmas Day Re-Cap

Christmas morning was an exciting one in our house. These two slept until 6:30 {which I thought was pretty good} and then patiently posed for a picture before we opened presents.

After our photo shoot, it was off to see if there was anything in our stockings. The picture quality isn't all that great, but it was too cute not to include.
Carter had several fun items in his stocking, but his favorite was a "real" Alabama jersey. Just in time for wearing in preparation for the 2012 BCS Nat.ional Champ.ionship game.
Callen's favorite item among her stocking treats was a stuffed Hello Kit.ty, but you can see it well in this picture.
Once the stockings had been emptied, we moved on the the presents under the tree. The first one Carter opened was a set of Han.dy Man.ny tools he had been wanting. He was excited to hear them sing and put them to work fixing things around our house.
He opened several more gifts that he had requested from Santa, and then opened his "big RC car" from Toy Sto.ry. It is a remote control car that he LOVES.
Callen was wondering what Santa brought that was in this big bag....
A drawing table! She was so excited! Can you tell?
Callen also loves bubbles, but she has a hard time blowing them herself, so Santa brought her a bubble machine. She was all about it. I am pretty sure that is the only time I will allow the machine to blow bubbles INSIDE the house!

It didn't take Callen any time to get to work coloring on the paper roll on the drawing table.
We had to beg Carter to change clothes later in the day; he was so into driving RC and fixing things with his tools.
After opening presents, we had a yummy breakfast with Bamma and Big Pat, and a relaxing Christmas Day with each other capped off by watching Ne.mo, which Callen got in her stocking!
