Cole was the first one up on Christmas morning - 7:15 and he quickly woke up his sister who was sleeping peacefully. After we had a cup of coffee in our hands and the fire was going we began to open gifts. This year the kids used some of their own money and went shopping on their own to buy Elroy and I each a gift. They were very excited to give these to us. Elroy got a "Relaxation Kit" which included a soft, fleece blanket and a pillow. I got a tray and necklace from 10,000 Villages - very thoughtful gifts.
Cole was very excited about his new hockey jersey - Sydney Crosby and Mac loved her new i-pod dock. Poncho even got in on the action with his very own gift - an edible log!
In the final gift that the kids opened, they found 2 new travel bags with a set of instructions. They were to each look for 3 hidden letters inside of their bags and then unscramble the letters to spell their Mystery Vacation! It didn't take Mac long to find the letters and Cole was busy looking for his last letter when he pulled out the letter D and shouted "Disney"! Disney World here we come - Spring Break 2011!
