The first guest of the night, Sean, was lucky enough to get to entertain Rudy for a while. Typical artists - they didn't want their pictures taken.
Music was the theme of the night. Rudy recruited everyone he could to sing and play with him at some point.
Uncle Tom even brought his own guitar for the festivities.
It was a late night. Rudy went to bed around 10:30 and was up by 7am.Discovering what was left under the tree and in the stockings.
The bets gift of the day - a 'scooper trash truck'. He spent the most time playing with it.
Pretending to rest.
Santa left a great gift - a Batman costume.

Even Lou got a gift - a new toy. 5 minutes after these pictures were taken, Lou chewed the toy enough to pull the stuffing out, so the toy went into the trash.
Such a patient dog.
My dad came over around 9am and we had a big breakfast and then exchanged a few gifts with him.
Playing with Legos. He copied all the pictures off the box- a house, plane and car.

As busy as Christmas Eve was, Christmas day has been much more laid back. Paul, Dad and I played a card game and Rudy jumped from toy to toy playing with all of them for a while. We are starting a new tradition tonight with my dad of going out for Chinese food for dinner. That should be a great end to a great day.
