Merry Christmas with the Nislys

Andrew got a remote control dump truck from Matt and Sarah.

Dad surprised Mom and got her a new microwave.

Sondra and Chad got Andrew a cool game called Cariboo, which he LOVES!

So, I'm very behind in posting and I'm sure I won't get caught up today since Andrew is boycotting his nap, again. *sigh* Anyway, here is a start to our Merry Christmas. We were blessed to enjoy Christmas with both sides of our family this year. Sondra and Chad and Matt and Sarah came home a couple of days before Christmas, so we had Christmas with my family on the 23rd. And Grandma joined us. Andrew was more interested in helping everyone open their presents than playing with his new toys. As soon as a present was opened, no matter what was inside, he would say, "I need another present." Eventually we ran out of presents and he could calm down and enjoy his new toys.

Here's a little video Sondra took that illustrates Andrew's crazy Christmas present-opening frenzied spirit.
