Christmas Shindigs

Our Christmas fun lasts for about a week, as any good time should. We kick off the season with the Tilley family get-together. We're a pretty big crowd these days, owing mainly to the fact that grandbabbies are popping up like rabbits, but it's always a good time. My boys love to see their cousins, mainly cause they're girls and that's a unusual species in our home.

Next we have the Smith family bash. It was nice to see everyone and spend some time catching up. Traditionally we sing and daddy plays the guitar. The "Nativity song" is a favorite. Aunt Shelley did a Christmas story skit. Check out my handsome Wise man.











Santa was tired out by the time Christmas morning rolled around due to a late night of elfing and middle of the night feedings. We woke up at 6:45am to a banging noise and discovered Arthur playing with his new farm set. In typical fashion we had to wake Tyler up, but he soon got in to it. Reid slept right through in his crib undisturbed by all the commotion much to his parents envy.


Christmas morning brings the tradition of breakfast in our jammies at Me-Me's and Paw-paw's. Followed by "Lupper" (a combo of lunch and supper) at Mema's. We were celebrated out by the end.
