Have a Merry little Christmas

Ari was the first one up, he got up just before 7 and sat right in front of the tree staring at the gifts.  He would have eagerly started the unwrapping frenzy but we told him he had to wait for his sister to get up and it was almost 8 before she finally wandered downstairs!

It was funny to see the different approaches the two of them took in opening their gifts.  Ari just ripped through everything and then wanted to help everyone else open their stuff.  Meanwhile Aliya would unwrap something then spend a few minutes exclaiming over it, and showing everyone.

Santa came through and got them both what they'd asked for - a remote control car for Ari and a Barbie camping set and camping Barbie for Aliya.  Thanks Santa!
