Christmas Eve & Christmas 2013

We have a lot of traditions this time of year and one that is fairly new is going to my parents house on Christmas Eve with the Stapley side of the fam. We have dinner, eat lots of sweets, and play games. It's always a lot of fun and Beckett loved playing with Rackham boys!





Christmas morning was a ton of fun this year. Beckett is old enough to understand how Christmas works and he has been more into specific toys as well. I couldn't wait to see his reaction. He was so cute Christmas morning. He walked out into the living room where Santa's toys were set up. He just kind of looked at them for a minute or so, not sure if they were really his. It didn't take much nudging for him to dive into his new toys. He played with each new toy for a couple of minutes and then would move on to the next. He wanted to open and play with every little thing. After we played with Santa's toys for a while we opened our family presents. He unwrapped about 4-5 presents before he was over that and just wanted to play. Josh & I had to unwrap the rest-Christmas morning is hard work for those 2-year olds.







After our Christmas morning at home we headed over to my parents house. We had a nice breakfast and then opened presents with them. Beckett got a big ol' tool play set that he loved & we got a nice new glider that we have wanted for baby girl.






Christmas night we had a big family dinner at my grandma & grandpa Petersen's house. It's safe to say we always eat WAY too much. The food is nummy nummy, my grandma can really put together a good dinner party. After dinner we opened presents with that side of the family. All in all, we had a fabulous day and got super spoiled!
