Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we had dinner at Aaron and Lisa's house, where Lisa baked a delicious ham. We were joined by Lisa's mom and aunt, these ladies are a hoot! We all had a great time and ate way too much. After we opened a few presents the kids surprised everyone with matching Christmas Jammies. Last year I saw so many of your families with this tradition and loved it so we added it to ours. Everyone thought they were so cute especially the grandma's! We loved being able to relax and visit and I love not having to cook dinner!

Kalli discovered Greyson's rocking horse and had to give it a test drive.Monkey see Monkey do!Ms Joanne (Lisa's mom) showing off her antlersMe and Joe after a delicious dinner!Kalli was obsessed with Greyson's new swing (forget that she has one just like this at my parents!) CC finally helped her get in and she loved it!Kaiden's turn to take pictures Another one from Kaiden (I think he had his finger over the flash)

Kalli wanted to be a reindeer too! She looks a little scary in the picture with her big chocolate teeth smile!Nana relaxing on the couch

The time Kaiden and Kalli had been waiting for-Opening Presents!

Papa loved his gift from Aaron and Lisa...I think he was the most excited out of everyone. He took his air compressor out of the box and even plugged it in to turn it on. He was so funny!

Ms Joanne got Kalli a 'Swiper' from "Dora the Explorer"She loves it and is always saying "wiper no wiping" (translation- Swiper no swiping) and "oh man!"
Opening more gifts with Ms Jeanie (Lisa's aunt)

Lisa and I got the kids matching Christmas Jammies and surprised all the adults...they loved it! This was our first attempt at taking a jammie picture

Kalli giving kisses to her favorite baby cousinOur 2nd attempt at pictures...the bumbo worked great and we could see little Greyson so much better...now if only everyone would look at the camera and smile!

Joe entertaining everyone with some good old fashion juggling...my hubby is so talented!

Kaiden loved his noisy light up gun from Joanne and Jeanie, he also tested out the bumbo chair.I remember when Kalli first used this chair and her thighs were so fat it took forever to get her out! What better way to end a great night than read a new book with her Papa!
