Christmas 2011 Part Three, Christmas Day

On Christmas morning I managed to keep Matthew in bed until about 7:30. We all knew it would be an early morning just like always.
We started with the stocking.
Then Matthew got to dig into the pile of presents.
Which included two big trucks and two smaller but beefier trucks from Grandpa and Grandma. He kept saying "Holy Macaroni" over and over again.
One of the hits of the day that continues to please is the magnifying glass i picked up at the dollar store.
After a nap, Matthew and Daddy headed outside with the bat from Grandpa and Grandma to play a game of "baseball" with snowballs.
Daddy pitches while Matthew swings.
Matthew makes contact.
Then Matthew takes a turn throwing the snowballs.
Success!
Happy being outside.
After the baseball game we hopped in the truck for a drive . Matthew was very excited to go because in rural Montana at Sunday drive speeds Grandpa says you don't have to use your car seat.
Enjoying the wind as it rushes down the plain.
Sitting on the console.
One of the fellas.
