The boys woke up in the morning and asked if Santa had arrived.  We convinced them to have breakfast first before we started the gift opening.  We began with our stockings first, then dug into all the presents under the tree.  Connor was very efficient finding his own name and opening the presents.  Stuart had to take over directing the present opening so everyone else had a chance to open and look at when we all received.  Logan opened presents gingerly while Connor opened up wrappers quickly.  Connor often asked Logan "Gou Gou, do you need help?" and Logan would answer yes, then they worked together nicely.  Logan has been having a running nose the past couple of days, but his spirit had not been dampened by it.  He was in search for his Lego Batman2, and when he finally opened up Batman2 and later the Marvel one, he gave out a very genuine smile.  Right after that, he was ready to walk away from more present opening to go play the game.  All of us received many presents especially the boys, but Connor asked for more presents to open when the bottom of the tree became empty.
      Afterward, we took a walk to our local school to play while Stuart drove the boys’ bikes over for them to try out.  Logan was happy with his golden bike, but when we asked him to get on it, he declined.  It took some convincing, he finally rode it with some hesitation.  But he did ok, and managed to ride it for a couple of rounds.  Connor tried out his "Green Machine"; he too wanted a cool name for the bike (or Logan’s previous bike).  Connor was willing to get on it but he became discouraged with the interruption from the back paddle brake.  I pushed him around for a round, and he got a better hang with it then.  The boys then took a break from biking to play with the boomerangs.  Logan learned how to use it quickly and played with it for a long time.  Connor could not throw it correctly but he did not seem to mind it and enjoyed walking to pick it up after the throws.  Both grandparents and I had our share of time trying it out too.  We then played at the structures; Connor claimed that he was doing some "exercises". 
     The rest of the day we played with the toys and presents that we received.  Connor had fun using the magic hat to show us his rabbit in the hat trick.  Grandma, Logan, Connor and I played with the Spot It game.  Logan was very quick with it once he got the hang of it, and Connor, to our surprise, did very well with it too.  Logan obviously spent some time playing with his Lego Marvel game, and he loved carrying his pirate chest around too. The boys also received a bath toy that they had fun putting it together during bath. 

    Before dinner, the boys enjoyed watching Mr. Grinch with Grandma.  At dinner we began the meal with the holiday crackers.  Our day was fun and festive.  Both boys declared that their favorite holiday is Christmas.
