Christmas Morning

Mele Kalikimaka!

Our family had a very nice Christmas this year. Not our biggest Christmas, but definately a memorable one. I mean, how often do you get to spend Christmas in 80+ degree weather? The twins got new bikes and were outside riding them most of the day! How cool is that?

I had planned on uploading a video of how the twins had to "hunt" for their bikes, but I couldn't get it to upload here or even on YouTube, so I guess you'll just have to deal with still pics.

I think they were getting a little worried at first because they had opened all their gifts under the tree and Andi still had more presents to open. Then they found the first "Candy Cane Clue" and the race was on:)

Just a sidenote...we got the estimate for the repairs to Dave's Harley yesterday. It is going to cost over $3200!! YIKES!

Thankfully the Army has to pay for it, the problem is that we have to wait for them to get around to cutting us a check! That could take up to 8 weeks!

On the bright side, the guy at the shop yesterday told us that it will probably take 9 weeks for them to get all the parts in anyway, so hopefully by the time it's done, we'll have the money from the Army to pay for it. I don't think Dave sees 9 weeks without his bike as a "bright side", but what are you going to do? It's kind of out of our hands at this point.

Here are some picture of the damage.

This is what it looked like in the box when they opened it.

Here you can see the damage to the tank, pipes and the brake handle is broken off!
