As Garrett and Gannon get older Christmas is much more fun. They were both very aware that Santa was going to be bring them something fun. Dave's job is "scouting" for Santa and Garrett had been keeping his on the bat cage and Gannon wanted to rocket! About a month prior to Christmas and long after "Santa's order" was put in Garrett decided he wanted a Cars 2 race track. We explained to him numerous times that Santa had lots of kids to bring gifts too and that he couldn't be sad if Santa didn't bring the new toy he wanted. Plus we already have a race track. (see below for more on this) He wasn't convinced. I thought for sure we were going to have our first Christmas breakdown because he didn't get what he wanted. Thank God this didn't happen. Both boys were THRILLED with what Santa brought them and Garrett never even mentioned the Cars 2 track. They were showered with gifts from Grandma and Papa and Aunt Taylor. It was a fun morning. Gannon just wanted to be the profession unwrapper for the day. Didn't matter whose present he was opening, he just wanted to open them all.
Another hit was Aunt Shannon and Uncle Joe's football jersey and helmet gifts. Look out we have football players running around - yes inside! I'm sure a broken something is in our future. Dave's favorite was of course his new skull nuggie!
As we know Garrett is a very detailed and particular child. Very type A personality. I don't know where he gets that! (ha ha) Anyway, the Cars 1 cars do not get mixed (played) with while the Cars 2 cars are being played with. Duh, they are from different scenes and different movies. They surely can't go together. So his theory on needing the Cars 2 race track was because his Cars 2 cars don't have a track, only the old cars do! Much like Mommy not letting Barbie's wear each others clothes!
