Christmas Morning

Or something very similar to.

Our kids needed new shoes. They have been askiging for light up shoes, you know the ones that light up with every step. So yesterday we had a bit of time and decided to go shopping.

So we find shoes for.Reese right.away. they are white with pink lights and she proceeded to run around the store with them instantly.

Tanner....we couldn't find his size anywhere. Luckily they had the exact shoe we needed in San Jose and Mel just happened to be heading over the hill for a soccer meeting.

So I took a disappointed Tanner home with the promise.that his shoes would be waiting for him in the morning.  When Mel got home we put he shoes at the foot of.his.bed so he could find them when he woke up.

Jump ahead to 12:20am this morning....

I heard this noise and thought reese was up again, but when I walked out into the hall find Tanner crouched over the shoe box with excitement and he yells "they arrived!" (Not sure who he thinks brought them, but that is another topic.)

He proceeded to put his shoes on and run around the dark house for the next 20minutes.  He was over the moon.

It was pretty cute as I tried to explain it was still time to sleep and pry the shoes from his.feet.  he went to sleep with the box under his ARM until 6 when he was up dressed, and running around with his.shoes again.

Only problem was Reese woken up and stayed up for.the next two hours.....going to be a long day.

Almost worth it with how excited and happy they are.
