Christmas Day.

Christmas Day arrived with the shrill cries of "Santa's been here..Santa's been here". Ronan woke up, ran to the living room right away and noticed that Santa's snack of milk and cookies and been eaten...a tell-tale sign that Father Christmas has paid a visit.

Ronan's second clue was there were more presents under the tree and that their stockings had been filled.

Both boys jumped in and started to empty their stockings.

Liam loves his new kitty, but had a soft spot for his "special" new friend, Mr. Cookie.


Liam decided it was time to open some presents.

Ronan took a peek from their new tent.

Liam took his pirate ship out on it's maiden voyage...and gave it a little nibble for good luck.

Ronan went for a drive in search of Mummy's Gold.

Liam decided to burn some holiday calories on their new trampoline.

Daddy assisted Ronan as he joined forces with his new crime-fighting partner.


We're now unwinding after the whirlwind morning...the sounds of "Who DARES wake the mummy?" growling in the background.
