This Christmas definitely came and went like a flash... we had 2 parties each day!!! Overall, the boys were very good - seeing as how the only naps they took were in the car rides home between parties!!! Got rid of the old toys to make room for the new... which there are a lot of... We had a wonderful Christmas 2009, and hope everyone else did too!!!
