Our Christmas routine is so crazy! On Christmas Eve we have 3 different places to go. We first start off at the Gilley's for my Dad's side of the family around 2 o'clock. We eat and open up presents and play dirty santa and then we are off to the next destination. Next is my moms side of the family around 6 o'clock. This year it was at my parent's house. We eat once again and the kids open their presents and the adults play dirty santa. We played it differently this year so it was a nice change. After that we are off to Ryan's grandparents house. By then it is 8 o'clock and they have already ate. They wait on us to open presents and then we usually play a board game. This year was totally different because now we have a baby to work around so instead of playing the game with everyone we went home to get some rest because we had a busy morning the next day. Christmas Day consists of us waking up and opening up our presents. This year was a good year! Ryan got his new wedding band that he wasn't expecting and I got an IPad that I wasn't expecting!! Santa sure was good this year! haha We decided that Liam would just get presents in his stocking this year since he was so little and already had everything that he needed. Next year will be a big Christmas! After we do our Christmas we go to my parents for breakfast. Breakfast consists of country ham, biscuits, eggs and sausage balls!! YUM!!! Papa stopped by and gave us our Christmas card :) I always look forward to his card because it has green stuff in it hehe! When we are done there, we go to Ryans parents house and open gifts there! They cook there too so we usually stuff our faces some more and nap on the couch. Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year but I am so glad when it is over!
Aunt Shonta loving on Liam...
We were so worried that Mackie would not let Earl hold Liam but once we put Liam in his lap Mackie wouldn't let anyone near either of them! We had to distract Mackie with something just to pick him back up! That dog is the devil!

Our first Christmas as a family!
Connor has grown up so much! Instead of playing outside with the other kids, he wanted to hold Liam. When it was time for a bottle he wanted to feed and burp him. Connors little brother is just a few months older than Liam so he has had lots of practice! I hope that one day Liam will be a good big brother like you Connor!
