Christmas Day

Christmas Day started very early for us. It was about 5am when Dirk and I woke up. We are as bad as little kids. We went and got the kids up by telling them Santa had come. That is all it took for both of them to pop right up. Lexi was more excited for Rayden and what Santa brought him to even notice what Santa had left her! They had so much fun playing with their new gifts. It took them awhile to get to the ones under the tree. They spent the whole morning playing with their new toys.
So any other Dixon's out their who think this picture looks like Ilse? I couldn't find a good comparison picture. Maybe it is just the fact that Lex is sporting the double lip look Ilse was famous for!
Ray and his new monster truck. He had to take this to Nate and Sarah's house for breakfast. We had the annual breakfast at their house this year instead of ours.
In the afternoon we went to my parent's house. The first thing Rayden wanted to do when we got there was to start up the trains with Pop. So my father and Dirk got them going. Rayden loves to sit and stare at the trains and Pop had a new one up just for Ray!
We had a great time with the family opening presents and spending time with Pop before he went back to Ogden for his surgery. Needless to say we all went to bed a little earlier then usual.
