Christmas Eve with Grandpa!

On Thursday, everyone came over so that we could celebrate with Grandpa, Jennifer and Matthew. We had a yummy pizza lunch and then it was present time! We decided to have a little more order this year so that it wasn't the storm of gift opening that we usually endure. Our plan was to go youngest to oldest, with each person opening all of their gifts before moving on to the next person.
 
Keira was up first! Grey LOVED her Elmo toy in the background. He couldn't get enough of him and just giggled and giggled. Keira liked her girts, too. Especially the Doc McStuffins ones (her favorite!)...

The big gift for my kids was a trampoline, so after Keira was finished, the guys went out front to lug it in...

After they read it...
They were pretty excited!

Then it was Grey's turn...


He got several Paw Patrol toys and some Paw Patrol bath paint and this Elmo piano...
Chase!

Char was next...

She got some jewelry and make up and my little ponies...
 
This was a gift card for Google Play for Hunter to use on his tablet... 
 
He also got some shower stuff...
 
The teenagers didn't want to be in the spotlight, so they went together... 

I can't believe how old they are!

Grey loved these Paw Patrol cars from his stocking...
Rocky and Zooma!

And Keira LOVED this baby doll. I don't think she put it down the whole time she was at our house!

Sweet cousins...
 
After Matthew opened his gifts, Court and Nathan, Me and James, and Katie and Steve went. Then it was Jennifer and Grandpa's turn...


 
After all the gifts were open, the guys went outside to put the trampoline together. We were so thankful for their help! And the kids were giddy to jump! Char couldn't get enough...

After everyone left, we freshened up and headed out to our Christmas Eve service. Courtney, Nathan and Keira came with us and Dee and Frank met us there...

Then we came home and put the kiddos to bed. James and I stayed up until about midnight setting it all up and cooking/baking for the next day. I was so tired by the time we went to bed!
 
I could hardly wait for the next morning. The best morning of the whole year!
