An Erim Christmas

Well, we had a very Merry Christmas this year. I was quite excited because for the first time both kids understood about Santa (well sort of) and both were more interested in the presents than the wrapping paper and the boxes. Santa was very good to all of us as you can tell. The funniest part of the day was watching the kids in complete ADD mode. They had so many new things to play with that they would play with one thing for like one minute and then see another and have to play with that. By the time I got a toy out of its box it was on to something new. Here are a couple of pics from the holiday. You can see lots more at Raif's smugmug page:
