Check out the loot we woke up to:

Nathan was so shocked. Heck, I was so shocked! Of course the first thing that runs through my mind is “where are we going to put all of this stuff?” I guess we’ll be having a SERIOUS garage sale come Spring.

Quite honestly, we could’ve stopped at the stockings. Those suckers were filled to the brim. So much so that Nathan’s took a nose-dive and landed almost in the fireplace. My mom saved it.

Will enjoying his stacking cups and all the other goodies in the stocking.

Nathan was trying to take it all in. I think he was overwhelmed by the Cars. I told him Santa was a BIG fan of the movie and wanted him to have every one of them! He just kept saying, “open this one! open this one!”

Will was certainly overwhelmed. He spent most of the time just eating the wrapping paper. Occasionally he’d play with one or more of his gifts as they were being opened for him.

David and Nate opening their Ms. Pac-Man & Galaga video game together. It was a huge score for them.

IT WAS A CARS CHRISTMAS HERE.

In addition to this super cool table and chairs set from Grammy, Nathan received the Mack Truck Bachelor Pad Playset, a Cars Bean Bag Toss game, about a dozen different Cars, and a new Lightning McQueen poster.

Grammy and the boys.

One of the most popular toys around here has been Will’s new Busy Ball Bopper. Don’t know why but Nathan is so fascinated by it! We all are, quite frankly. I am sure it’ll be one of those toys we NEVER get rid of!

Will also got a cute monkey stuffed animal chair. It had been a long day by the time I got around to trying to get him to sit in it for any length of time.

We also played with Nate’s great Motor Works set, which is a great toy!

The boys also received countless games, clothes, jackets, more toys, etc. By the end of the evening there were still several things we hadn’t even played with or opened yet.

I’d upload more pics but they’re all on my mom’s memory card which I forgot to dump onto my computer before she left town, so it’ll have to wait till she can email them to me.

It was a great Christmas even despite the paper-eating fiascos.
