4 feet is a lot of man to blow
Here in the world of Boys, Buns and Fun, we had ourselves a really great Christmas.
David and I spent a good portion of Christmas Eve taking turns blowing up a 4 foot punching bag for the kids. It took FOREVER. It could have been worse though, if we didn't have an air pump. Ours is this dinky little hand pump that we got for filling up small objects like basketballs and such, so our biceps were screaming by the time we finished filling him up.

Here's the 4 Feet of Punching Bag
We decided to take credit for the "big" gift, instead of giving the credit to Santa. So we're both on super cool status with the boys, since we got them an Xbox.
After unwrapping it, and the 3 games we got them, it was immediately hooked up to their playroom t.v. and we haven't seen either of them since.

This is the last time I saw my children
Ok, not really... Every few hours I go in there and force them both over to the table for a meal.
Christmas dinner was goooood. David fried us a turkey and I made tons of side dishes. Most notably, a sweet potato souffle that is just heavenly. I'll have to post the recipe for it some time.
Anyhow, I hope everyone had a great Christmas!

So glad you had a great Christmas!
We used to love those punching bags when we were little. So happy to see some things are still around.
Your two boys are very handsome. That hair cut is really neat. They do all those over here but it looks especially cute on them. Watch out mom...girls are going to be calling and giggling on the other end of the phone real soon.
It is wonderful when you buy your kids a gift and they actually play with it. The "Xbox" was the winner. Way to go mom and dad!
Now you can relax a bit!
