The sound of opening presents on Christmas is a lot louder when you have four boys between the ages of 8 and 14. But that noise screams success for a family that spent its first Christmas together on Sunday.

“I was hoping that the boys would feel at home, like they have a home forever and this is just the beginning for them,” says mother Tammy Dunne.

Last Christmas, Gaylen, Trisden, Aaron, and John were four brothers in foster care.
