Jon can't believe that our kids have to be woken up on Christmas morning since he and his brother woke their parents before daylight. I guess they get it from me because I always had to be woken up. I have always liked my sleep. This year Ashton actually woke up on her own. That is the first time that has ever happened on Christmas. She got to go wake up Jackson which she always loves.
This isn't the best picture but is the best expression of when they first saw what Santa had brought.
Santa brought them each a homeschool box complete with some supplies to get them started and a letter telling them to be as good for mommy as they were for their teachers at school. They really liked it, seriously it was almost their favorite thing.
Daddy's stocking had him some cool grills I'm sure he'll be sporting at church soon. It must really be nice to have someone who loves you enough to search for thoughtful "stuffers" instead of making you search late at night for things around the house to stuff your own, I'm just saying!

Jon always tells me he can't use lotion because it smells which is bad for deerhunting. Santa was beyond excited to find this scent-free lotion made just for hunters. He has no excuses now!
Ashton finally got the Barbies who sing when they touch each other's hands that she has long been wanting. However, much to Daddy's chagrin Wesley probably plays with them the most!
Jon loves when Jackson gets toys that he had as a child. You can't beat the football kicker.
Will decided he wanted big brother's game- Rock Band!
What's a twin brother for if not to be the guitar to your drums?
I think I've mentioned before how much Wesley loves to sweep. Santa assumed he would love a vacuum, and boy that Santa knows what he's doing. He didn't like it, he loved it! Doesn't he look proud?

Wesley dug right in with his vacuum. It has a detachable dust buster, but when Jackson took it apart he had a fit until he fixed it back. Will on the other hand likes to sit back and take it all in. I think they look like such little boys in this picture in their big boy pajamas.
Will always have the funniest looks. Here he seems to be saying, "Where did all this come from?" or maybe it's more like, "You mean that Wesley kid pushes me down and steals my stuff and Santa still brought him a vacuum?"
Ten minutes later and what was Wesley doing? About 20 years from now I expect this same expression when he brings home his cute girlfriend (I'm planning that girl to be Eliza because he's such a stinker he needs an older woman to keep him in line, besides he'll be quite a catch if he still loves to vacuum!). Doesn't this picture look like he's in love and showing her off?
Jon and I were laughing all morning because he never took his hand off the vacuum! This was my favorite memory of a wonderful Christmas morning.
Here is Ashton showing off her pink camo robe that says, "hunting diva", but where is Wesley?
I love having a daughter because while some people (with new grills) might not get me a gift until the day before, if then, she of her own volition (Jon) picked me out a gift from her jewelry box and wrapped it herself and hid it in her room for over a week. Her love language is so giving gifts. But where is Wesley?Jon and I were laughing all morning because he never took his hand off the vacuum!
