Random Christmas-y pictures

Today is the first day of Christmas break, so Brian took the morning off and he and Payton headed out to play some miniature golf. Payton was so excited, plus they had perfect weather! Couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day today. But don't let Payton's pants and long-sleeves fool you. By 11 a.m. it was 75 degrees. Gorgeous!
In other Christmas-related news, our elf Percy has been up to some funny things. I won't bore you with a ton of elf pictures, but I do want to post one funny one. We had packed up the Polar Express Train because Parker had decided that throwing the remote and the trains was much more fun than watching it go around the track (maybe next year??). But I guess Percy wasn't ready to say goodbye to the Polar Express just yet. The next morning, we found him on the half-wall between the play room and the family room riding the train! 
What a crazy little guy he is. We sure are gonna miss him next week!
Another funny thing we captured on film this week was Parker's reaction to a little plastic, wind-up snowman. It came on the top of a bubble gum tube, but I think it may just be his favorite gift this Christmas! Sorry in advance for the picture overload... they were just too cute to cut any out! :)
Can't you almost hear him giggling???
He's thinking, "Do it again Payton, do it again!"
 I love Payton's expression in this photo. He's so proud that he made his little brother so happy.
 He finally got a hold of it!
 But decided it was much more fun on the ground.
It's always the least expensive things that thrill kids at this age. Go figure!
