We have always been early risers around here, but I'm pretty sure today takes the cake for early morning birthday festivities. Birthday boy, Eli, and his equally-excited partner in crime were up at 5:45 this morning, chatting away in their bunk bed in eager anticipation of "What could be inside those packages from the grandparents?" Grandma Paula and Grandad Jory & Connie beat the Christmas rush and actually had Eli's presents arrive early (a skill I clearly missed out on in the gene pool), which once again saved me, since I never seem to have birthday presents wrapped in time. Not only were the long-distance grandparents super prepared, but they also thought alike, which with two best bud brothers turned out to be the perfect thing. No fighting over the new toys!

| Can you see why he was so thrilled about these packages? Gigantic! |
 |
| "Just what I wanted!" |
 |
| "Awesome!!" |
 |
| And here's the beauty of getting two guitars |

| The jam session goes on (p.s. they're still jamming, an hour later) |

WOW!!! It looks like a fabulous day! I'm SO glad Eli liked the gifts. I thought that he could play the guitar AND the keyboard - be sure to read the instructions if he hasn't already figured it out. The keyboard actually plays... : Have fun and BUY SOME EARPLUGS!!!! Ha - that did work out perfectly that there are 2 - I was really worried about everyone wanting to play it. :)
Happy Birthday Eli!!
I can't believe our kids are getting so big! Weren't we both kidless just a little while ago?
Take a nap if you can and have a wonderful day!
Yes, Denita, it does feel like we were VT companions and w/o children not that long ago. I have no idea how time passes so fast! Thanks for the bday wishes for our #2. :)
Mom, they love the keyboard option on both guitars! Thanks again.
I was going to call you today and see how you were doing with everything- so glad you blogged! Love the jam session!
I would be relieved as well if two of the same gift showed up, then everyone is happy! Except Millie I guess:( Maybe she can do lead vocals!
