These are a few of our favorite things...

Grandma Emery got Luke his first sleeping bag, complete with flashing lights on it. Pretty fun.

Shawna got Luke this adorable fury cat that meows and moves and all kinds of stuff. Luke hasn't let it out of his sight since he got it.

Okay, this is from last year and well...28 years ago - but these are beautiful stockings that Austin's grandmother (Grammy Williamson) made for him and later for Luke. Austin used this all growing up, but we can't use them now since we only have 2 for our family. My goal is to learn how to knit them...someday, so we can have them for everyone. Anyway, for now we hang them on our wall and people "ooh" and "ahh" at them. Who wouldn't?

Luke thought this Ironman DVD was a mask - it doubles as a great toy and great DVD.

Some people have all the talent! Austin's grandma made these for Luke, but would you let your 2 year old touch these? They're too cute.

Jensen didn't like the hot Christmas PJs we had him in - hence the unzipping of the beast. He did, however, love the rattles we gave him - well, old rattles from Luke really, but it works.

Grammy Kramer got Luke a fun puzzle and some stickers and a book of his beloved Thomas the tank engine. Guess how many times we've read that already?

Luke took a nap with this firetruck on Christmas day. I think that says a little something about his feelings for it.

Shawna was the finder of this special gift. Hilarious from the Christmas Story!

This was Luke's main gift from Santa. He, of course, loves it! He mostly likes to sit on it rather than it actually moving. We think we should give it to him again next year when we can maneuver it better, but I think he might notice that we had already given it to him.

Austin got a little more excited for Luke's toys then even Luke. We got Luke a 6 foot long hot wheels track - hours of entertainment for Luke, Austin and me. Luke and Austin love to play with it and I love to watch my husband act like a little kid using it. This is a picture of the tournament Austin put together for the cars. It took a few hours to complete this tournament (which was actually 2 full sheets of cars) and by the end of the tournament, Austin was the only one still interested in it - but boy was he interested!

Some of our hot wheels are a little obscure hence the names Austin gave some of the cars "Pizza," "Clear" and "Ol' Pup" were some of my favorites.

Austin's mom got this for me/us. It will be SO much better than what I use now which is a fuzzy radio. I can't wait to be cool using this at my half marathon.

Austin's new, sweet ride

My bike and the trailer we'll put the kids in. We used this a little yesterday and it was AWESOME! Luke cheered the whole time. I am so excited for warmer weather and lots of trips with this. Oh, and grand total for the bikes and trailer - $100!

Luke and Jensen got some really cute new outfits.

This one is just cute, Luke LOVES Jensen and kisses him all the time and holds his little, baby hand. It's so cute. He also sings to him and tries to make him laugh. Such a good boy.

Austin has spent at least 6 hours (LITERALLY) on this present. Shawna got him this board game that he's been wanting - Axis and Allies. He's actually NEVER played it, nor does he know anyone who has. He just thought it seemed really cool and became obsessed with having it so now he's spent a lifetime learning how to play it. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little about the whole thing, but seriously it takes 2 hours to set up to play the game! Oh wow.

Dillon got the boys some cute books for Christmas, not to mention that Grammy Kramer always finds the best and most fun books! They are Luke's favorite to read - or have read to him would be more accurate I guess. Austin's grandma, Grammy Williamson, got Luke a subscription to this wonderful magazine for kids called Wild Animal Baby. It's so fun and full of great pictures and games and stuff. Such a great gift!

We got some awesome gifts for Christmas - these were a few of our favorites.

Austin couldn't keep up with Luke's Power Wheel ATV, that actually only goes 2 mph. Since this incident, Austin has joined a gym.
