Christmas 2/3


       Christmas morning came a bit too early for us.  Aaron was up in the night puking, just like Tate did the night before, but his was much much more violent and frequent.  We're not sure what the deal was, but thankfully it only lasted about 18 hours, so Aaron was feeling well enough to go to the Handeland Christmas that evening.
       So Christmas morning at our house wasn't quite so wild since Aaron didn't feel well, but we all unwrapped our gifts and I think everyone loved what they got, I know I did.  Tate got his cozy truck and a few other things. Let me tell you, that truck was a pain in the rear to put together, actually it was a pain in my face, since I smacked myself in the face with one of those yellow pieces as I tried to jam it into place.  Next kid- the grandparents can be responsible for that stuff!  But Tate enjoyed it, so it was worth the pain.
     At my Grandpa & Grandma Handeland's that afternoon we had a great time just snacking and hanging out before supper.  Then after supper Tate was allowed to have his gift early, since it would be past his bedtime when the gift opening would occur.  The Greats got him a slide which was another wonderful gift and Tate totally loved it, as you'll see in the photos below.  Tate also exchanged gifts with cousin Zach, he got a remote control car which he will love, once he figures out how to work it, rather than throw it across the floor. 
     All in all, a successful Christmas: Aaron got to feeling better, we all got great gifts and Tate got his naps in and went to bed well.

Oh my gosh, it's so cool

The big slide was a BIG hit

Blurry, but you get the point.
