Christmas at 'Tucked Away'

Last weekend we went to Grandma Jany and Papa Jim's for our Christmas celebration with Pete's side of the family. I think this may have been the first time since Pete and I have been married that the ENTIRE family was together to celebrate a holiday together!

We hope this starts happening more often as we now live in Virginia and Pete's brother, Patrick, and his family live in Maryland right now...

After a HUGE feast we all settled in to do some serious present opening.

Digging in...

Morgan waits patiently with Aunt Judy for her first gift.

Who wrapped everything in 'Saints' colors this year....hmmmm?

Little blurry but had to include it as he was so excited to get Gator Golf!

Our cats will truly love chasing these balls around the house...in the middle of the night...

Davis drew Brooke's name this year, here he is giving her his gift.

Tennis balls! Yeah!...and he also gave Brooke movie tickets to share with her friend Patrick (who was just great with all the kids!).

Davis getting some assist from Brooke and Uncle Larry. Just look at that face!

He was so excited to get some 'Toy Story' action figures from Grandma Mary!

Peyton getting in on the action...

Cousins...two peas in a pod...I have never seen two boys more alike in their wants and actions. Just give them some trains and Legos and they are two happy boys.....for hours....

Pete opening his gifts from his mom and Jim...a Cowboy's hat...wait, don't we live in Virginia now? Don't tell Pete and Patrick that!

Morgan showing off her new slippers from Papa Jim and Grandma Jany and her new doodle pad from Grandma Mary!

Papa Jim & Grandma Jany gave Davis and Morgan tent & tunnel to play with in our basement...let the fun begin...

We attended church with the entire family the next day but then we really had to get on the road because the weather was soooo bad...

You can tell the kids had a blast, this is the way kids spent the drive home.
